Daily Fantasy Basketball Game Scripts to Target on 2/16/17

Al Horford, C, Boston Celtics

FanDuel Price: $7,000

Al Horford hasn't looked like himself recently thanks to five straight games under 30 FanDuel points. He's shown the ability for a big game this month, though -- he has a 44-FanDuel-point performance on his ledger and according to our projections, he owns the highest ceiling of any center on tonight's slate.

Horford's Boston Celtics are road favorites against the Chicago Bulls in what is expected to be the lower-scoring of the two games. The over/under currently sits at 213 points and Boston is implied for 107 points.

The big man has seen improvement in his game in other positive game scripts this season, averaging 35.6 FanDuel points in games with an over/under above 210 points, as opposed to 32.5 in all others. When there's an implied team total of at least 105 points, he has averaged 35.4 FanDuel points.

With Kelly Olynyk taking on a larger role and being priced significantly cheaper than Horford, it's unlikely Boston's starting big man will be a popular option. However, a look at his numbers for the entire season, not just a five-game sample size, shows Horford could certainly put up a big game in this spot and is worth a look in tournaments.
