Giannis Antetokounmpo, SG, Milwaukee Bucks

FanDuel Price: $10,500

The Los Angeles Lakers have been a disaster lately. With their playoffs hopes a distant memory at this point, they have shifted their focus from winning games to getting minutes for their young players.

Over the past month, they rank dead last in defensive rating while also ranking 27th in rebound rate and playing at the league's fastest pace -- a perfect combination for the fantasy production of opponents. It's hard to categorize Giannis Antetokounmpo's position, but the Lakers rank 19th against shooting guards, 26th against point guards and 28th against small forwards.

So, anyway you cut it, this is a terrific matchup.

Giannis' production has been a little bit quiet this month, but he has played at least 39 minutes in 3 of his last 5 games while showing he still has a ton of upside with a 69-fantasy-point performance last week. This matchup is about as good as you can ask for, and he once again has some serious upside tonight.
