Top Four Power Forwards

  1. Nikola Jokic ($10,300) vs. San Antonio Spurs
  2. Jabari Parker ($7,400) vs. Phoenix Suns
  3. Ersan Ilyasova ($6,100) vs. Miami Heat
  4. Terrence Jones ($5,500) vs. Washington Wizards

Rationale:

  • Fresh off his first career triple-double, Denver forward Nikola Jokic has proven to be one of the most consistent producers in FanDuel NBA play. Jokic posted 20 points,13 rebounds and 11 assists during a win over Milwaukee. The 6-foot-10 forward has been logging impressive numbers over the past nine games, scoring 20 or more points on seven occasions while grabbing 10 or more rebounds eight times. Any concerns about the hip injury that forced Jokic to miss three consecutive games earlier in the week were quickly erased with his standout performance Friday night.
  • The last three times Philadelphia has played Ersan Ilyasova 30 or more minutes, he has submitted elite FanDuel NBA outings. Ilyasova is posting averages of 23 points, 10.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals per game when he receives extended minutes. The 76ers have kept Ilyasova on the court for 30 or more minutes 16 times this year and he has been in the starting lineup 31 times in the 44 games since he was acquired from Oklahoma City in exchange for Jerami Grant.
