Carmelo Anthony, SF, New York Knicks

Price: $8,700

The Brooklyn Nets are a very weak defensive team. They're sitting 29th with a 110.4 Defensive Rating, are allowing the eighth-most points against per game, and are allowing the highest Effective Field Goal Percentage to opponents. Also promising for targeting them in fantasy is that they rank below league-average in both Offensive and Defensive Rebound Rate.

In March, Carmelo Anthony averaged 24.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists, good for 39.8 FanDuel points per game, while sporting a 29.8 percent Usage Rate.

With the Knicks out of contention and the season winding down, there's a good chance that Anthony starts to see his minutes cut down a bit. Even if that's the case tonight though, his recent production combined with the incredible matchup make him a strong fantasy option.
