3 NBA DraftKings Studs to Target on 3/21/19

Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesta Timberwolves

DraftKings Price: $10,000

The most expensive player on the slate tonight is Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns, and he costs a lot for a good reason. Towns is in the midst the of best season of his career, and he's been getting better as the season has progressed.

He's scored at least 48.0 DraftKings points in all but one game this month and is putting up an average of 55.4 DraftKings points per game in March despite an uncharacteristically poor 34.5-fantasy-point dud against the Detroit Pistons on March 6.

Towns' season-long per-36 averages of 26.8 points, 13.4 boards, 3.6 assists, and 1.0 steals are all career-high clips. and he'll get a nice matchup tonight to try to boost those averages. The last time he faced the Charlotte Hornets, he went off for 35 points, 12 boards, and 73.0 DraftKings points. While reaching those lofty heights again is going to be hard to do, who's going to stop him from a huge game? Bismack Biyombo? Frank Kaminsky? Please.

Our models have him in for a big game tonight. We project him for 56.0 DraftKings points, by far the highest projected total on the slate. Don't overthink this one.
