Anthony Davis, PF, New Orleans Pelicans

Price: $12,300

Anthony Davis continues to put up staggering fantasy numbers. He has more games with 70-plus FanDuel points (4) than he does with fewer than 50 (3) on the year, and he has topped 60 FanDuel points in 10 of his 18 games.

His 60.0 FanDuel points per game are the most in the NBA, with the next-highest mark sitting at only 55.8. That 4.2-point gap is bigger than the gap between the second- and fifth-highest marks this season.

A matchup with the Miami Heat does put him in a tough spot -- they rank top-10 in defensive rating and 11th in rebound rate -- but his upside still keeps him in play tonight.

With so many solid high-priced plays tonight, Davis isn't a must-play in cash games by any stretch, but two of his top five fantasy games this season did come against teams with above-average defensive ratings, and our models still project him for Friday's top fantasy score.
