3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 3/12/19

Nikola Jokic, C, Denver Nuggets

Price: $10,900

Not nearly the efficient fantasy producer that Giannis is, Nikola Jokic makes up for his sometimes-shaky floor with a ton of upside.

He's fallen below 40 FanDuel points three times in his last 15 games, but he's also topped 55 fantasy points in five of those games, with 50-plus in another three. For $1,100 less than Antetokounmpo, that production is easy to like.

This is also the most efficient fantasy season of Jokic's career as he sits sixth in the NBA with an average of 1.51 FanDuel points per minute. That efficiency means that even if his minutes are limited in a blowout -- as they could be tonight as 10.5-point favorites against the Minnesota Timberwolves -- he's still a threat to do some damage.

The Wolves own the NBA's second-worst defensive rating while ranking 19th in rebound rate and playing at an above-average pace since the All-Star break. The matchup could get even softer if Karl-Anthony Towns (questionable) sits.
