Andre Drummond, C, Detroit Pistons

Price: $9,100

We have an embarrassment of riches at center tonight, and this pair of terrific plays in the $9k range is why DeMarcus Cousins, a strong play in a vacuum, isn't especially appealing with his $11,600 price tag.

Andre Drummond is having a career year on the glass, averaging a league-high 15.8 rebounds per game, and his offensive numbers are also looking great. He's averaging 13.6 points per game (right in line with his career average) and 3.3 assists per game (by far a career-high), and sporting a .560 true shooting percentage, his best since the 2013-14 season.

Detroit is playing up in pace tonight against an Indiana team that ranks eighth in pace (compared to 24th for the Pistons), and that means Drummond should see more possessions than he typically does. Getting extra possessions against a Pacers team that ranks bottom-10 in rebound rate means there's a strong chance that Drummond records his ninth 15-plus rebound game of the season, while also giving him a real shot at notching his third game with 20-plus.

The Pacers have also allowed the league's third-highest field goal percentage within five feet of the basket, which is where about 77% of Drummond's field goal attempts have come from this season.
