3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 1/25/18

Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves

Price: $9,000

Karl-Anthony Towns is coming off a down game last night, but the volatile nature of his fantasy production leaves him priced well below his ceiling. He's not as safe as Westbrook, but with a trio of 60-plus FanDuel point games in the past month, his upside is easy to like at this price point.

The Wolves are playing way up in pace -- Golden State ranking third in that category -- meaning KAT should see a handful more possessions than he usually does. That pace combined with a weakness at center has the Warriors allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position.

Like Curry, KAT gains some additional value if Butler sits. Butler's 24.4% usage rate is a team-high, and Towns' usage rate jumps from 21.8% with him on the floor to 23.4% with him off, while his FanDuel points per minute also see a slight bump.
