Anthony Davis, PF/C, New Orleans Pelicans

DraftKings Price: $11,500

DraftKings' pricing algorithms don't seem to fully recognize the career year Anthony Davis is having for the New Orleans Pelicans. Despite averaging a league-high 60.5 DraftKings points and coming off a game in which he put up 80.25 DraftKings points (36 points, 19 boards, and a lotta chedda), Davis' price has gone down $300 to $11,500 heading into tonight's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

No matter. The Brow is too busy dominating to worry about things like that. If the season ended today, he'd be one of only two players in NBA history to average at least 28 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks per game in a season, according to Basketball Reference. The other player was Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who averaged 30.0, 14.0, 4.1, and 3.3, respectively, in the 1974-75 season.

Davis has scored at least 60 DraftKings points in three of his past four against the Clippers, including a 67.75-point effort when they faced each other in their only matchup this season. We project him to score 57.8 DraftKings points tonight, making him the highest-projected fantasy play of the evening.
