Nikola Jokic, C, Denver Nuggets

Price: $10,900

This is only the second time Nikola Jokic's price tag has come down below $11,000 since the All-Star break, and it's surprising to see him priced this low after topping 50 FanDuel points in four of his last six outings.

He also topped 55 FanDuel points in 6 of his last 10 games before the All-Star break, and all told he's averaging 50.9 despite playing only 32.6 minutes per game in that stretch.

He only played 23.2 minutes the last time he took on the Golden State Warriors because that game quickly became a blowout, but as only 6.5-point underdogs tonight, the Denver Nuggets starters should get plenty of run. With his elite efficiency, ranking sixth in the NBA in FanDuel points per minute, getting solid playing time against a Warriors team that allows above-average fantasy efficiency to centers gives him some serious upside.
