Price: $9,300
Andre Drummond draws a tough matchup tonight against the Denver Nuggets, but he's got enough going for him that he still makes for a great play at this price.
Since returning from a brief injury absence, Drummond has dropped at least 49 fantasy points (5.3 per $1,000 of salary today) in three of his four games, playing an average of 36.8 minutes in those three games. The exception was a game that saw him get into foul trouble early, playing just over three minutes combined in the second and third quarters. He still produced highly efficient numbers in that game though, notching 38.7 fantasy points in only 22.7 minutes.
Looking at his final three healthy games before his injury, Drummond also averaged 45.7 FanDuel points per game while playing at least 35 minutes in each.
Priced so far below his level of production (especially when you factor in the huge minutes he's playing), even a drop in efficiency against the stout Nuggets frontcourt shouldn't hold his production back enough to take him out of consideration as a top play tonight.
