Andre Drummond, C, Detroit Pistons

Price: $9,400

Continuing with the trend of players who we'll need to overcome a tough matchup, Andre Drummond is a high-risk, high-reward type play against the Wizards.

Drummond doesn't have an especially high floor for a guy at this price point (even in better matchups), but what he does offer is a much higher ceiling than you usually get at this salary. He went off for 69 FanDuel points on Saturday, giving him eight games with at least 60 on the season.

Drummond has grabbed 20-plus rebounds in three of his last six games and is averaging 13.2 points, 17.7 boards and 2.7 blocks (good for 45.3 FanDuel points) per game in that stretch despite shooting only .460 from the field (compared to .524 on the season). That's not too far off 5 fantasy points per $1,000 of salary, and even though his low floor in this matchup makes him a shaky play in cash games, his ceiling is very appealing in tournaments.
