Nikola Jokic, C, Denver Nuggets

Price: $9,300

The Utah Jazz are a significantly less scary fantasy matchup in the frontcourt while Rudy Gobert remains sidelined. Since Gobert went down, the Jazz sit 24th in rebound rate, a middling 14th in defensive rating and are allowing the league's highest field goal percentage in the restricted area (69.1%).

Nikola Jokic's usage tends to be inconsistent, but there's no denying his offensive abilities. He's sporting a 23.5% assist rate to go with a 61.2% true shooting percentage on the year. He is always a threat for big numbers on the glass, as well, with a career-best 20.5% rebound rate.

The absence of Paul Millsap (wrist) seems to be promising for Jokic's fantasy value too, as he has topped 13 rebounds and posted usage rates north of 27.5% in two of his three games since Millsap went down.
