Sometimes a player's game simply matches up incredibly well versus an opponent. Such is the case with Minnesota Timberwolves forward Taj Gibson against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Gibson has faced off against the Lakers seven times in a Timberwolves uniform. He's scored more than 20.0 FanDuel points in all of those contests and is averaging 17.0 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 1.3 blocks, and 34.1 FanDuel points.

His consistency against LA isn't just a recent phenomenon, however. He hasn't scored fewer than 20.0 FanDuel points against the Lakers since Christmas Day in 2014.

If you're looking for a value play with a solid floor, Gibson should be on your radar.
