Andre Drummond, C, Detroit Pistons

DraftKings Price: $8,600

If you're looking for a center to provide a solid foundation for your lineups tonight, then consider Andre Drummond. The Detroit Pistons big is in the midst of a career year, and his matchup tonight bodes well for continued success.

Drummond enters tonight's game with averages of 17.7 points, 15.4 boards (first in the league), 1.9 blocks (tied for sixth), and 1.5 steals (21st). He's averaging 5.3 steals plus blocks over his past three games and has scored at least 42.0 DraftKings points in nine out of his past 10 games.

He hasn't yet faced the Indiana Pacers this year, but his recent history suggests that he will have no trouble putting up big numbers against Myles Turner or whomever the Pacers use to fruitlessly try to defend him. In his four contests against them last year, Drummond averaged 17.3 points, 16.8 boards, 3.3 assists, 0.8 steals, 1.8 blocks, and 47.9 DraftKings points, never scoring below 44.25.

numberFire has him projected to continue his consistent play against them tonight. Our models have him scoring 45.9 DraftKings points.
