Kemba Walker, PG, Charlotte Hornets

Price: $8,200

Kemba Walker has a matchup that's hard to ignore tonight against the Phoenix Suns. The Suns' defense has been an absolute mess this season, and it's translating to fantasy production in a big way.

Phoenix ranks 28th with a 109.4 Defensive Efficiency and are allowing a .530 Effective Field Goal Percentage, the highest in the league, as well as the league's highest three-point percentage. This has led to them giving up the second most fantasy points to both guard positions. As an added bonus, they have the second highest Turnover Rate in the league at 15.2 percent and are allowing the most steals per game, while Kemba Walker is posting the second best Steal Rate of his career this season.

He's having a great season overall so far, posting career highs in Player Efficiency Rating (20.4) and True Shooting Percentage (.542), and he sports a 26.4 percent Usage Rate. Through February, Walker averaged 22.4 points, 5.6 assists and 4.8 rebounds, good for 38.0 FanDuel points per game. With an incredibly favorable matchup today, he should have no trouble building on those numbers.
