Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves

Price: $10,800

Karl-Anthony Towns has a lower floor than we usually see in this price range, and he's susceptible to posting sub-30 fantasy point duds more often than you'd like to see. He more than makes up for that with his ceiling and the consistent numbers he posts in those non-dud games.

Seven games ago, he dropped only 29 fantasy points. In the other 11 of his last 12 we've seen him top 40 fantasy points 11 times, 45 nine times, 50 seven times and 60 four times. Those regular games of 50- and 60-plus fantasy points are something you usually need to pay at least into the $11,000s for, and the occasional dud keeps KAT's salary down for us.

There's not a huge risk of a dud tonight against the Sacramento Kings, either, as the Kings allow top-12 fantasy efficiency to centers. That comes with their allowing the NBA's most rebounds per game to opponents.

High-rebounds games are exactly where Towns shows off his ceiling, and in the 15 contests in which he has grabbed more than 15 boards this year he's averaging 62.7 FanDuel points per game.
