Anthony Davis, PF, New Orleans Pelicans

Price: $13,300

After being significantly underpriced in his first game of the season, we get Anthony Davis priced back up where he belongs tonight.

After posting historically dominant numbers in the absence of DeMarcus Cousins last year, Brow opened the 2018-19 campaign with 80.2 FanDuel points against the Houston Rockets.

The New Orleans Pelicans draw another plus matchup tonight, boasting a slate-high 120.5-point implied total against the Sacramento Kings.

After ranking bottom-5 in defensive rating and allowing the 9th-most rebounds per game last year, the Kings opened this season giving up 123 points and getting out-rebounded 44 to 37 by the Utah Jazz, and it doesn't look like they're going to be any tougher a matchup than we've seen in the past.

Davis is by far the most expensive player on the slate, but our models project him for the day's top fantasy score, and with his unparalleled ceiling, this matchup makes him well worth paying up for.
