3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 2/27/17

Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves

FanDuel Price: $10,600

With the departure of DeMarcus Cousins, the Sacramento Kings are left very thin in the frontcourt. Cousins led the team in both rebound rate and defensive rating at the All-Star break. Nikola Jokic had a quiet game against the Kings in their first without Cousins, but Frank Kaminsky just posted 23 points and 13 boards in this matchup, and it's looking like the Kings should be a good team to target big men against moving forward.

Karl-Anthony Towns has been a very consistent fantasy producer this season, and he has 40-plus FanDuel points in 13 of his last 14 games. Playing 36.5 minutes per game this year with a 27.5% usage and 19.3% total rebound rate, there's no reason to expect that consistency to disappear either.

He also offers upside, as he has posted a pair of 60-plus fantasy point games in that same 14-game span (including 67.9 in his last game on Saturday). He's averaging a strong 1.2 FanDuel points per minute on the year, and with at least 36 minutes in eight of his last nine games, he should be in for another big night against the Kings.
