Andre Drummond, C, Detroit Pistons

DraftKings Price: $8,900

On one side of the court you have Charlotte Hornets center Cody Zeller. On the other, the Detroit Pistons' Andre Drummond. It isn't really a fair fight.

To be fair, Zeller is having one of the top two seasons of his career. Of course, so is Drummond, who is averaging 17.9 points and 15.5 boards per game this year. If he finished the season with these numbers, he'd be just the second player since 1991-92 (Kevin Love being the other) to average at least 17.0 points and 15.0 rebounds in a season.

Drummond has averaged 18.5 points, 17.5 boards, 3.5 blocks, and 2.0 steals in his two meetings against the Hornets this season. We have him projected for 18.6, 15.8, 1.8, and 1.4 tonight, which would be good for 47.8 DraftKings points, tied with Kawhi Leonard for the fourth-highest projected fantasy output on the slate.
