DraftKings NBA daily fantasy: 3 fantasy sleepers for Dec. 12

Wilson Chandler ($4,400)

Wilson Chandler has had a bit of an up-and-down season this year. Recently he’s been battling back pain, which has kept him limited in his minutes. He’s even missed three games this season already.

However, he logged 37 minutes in his last game against the Indiana Pacers, which is the most he’s played since nearly a month earlier against Orlando. Earlier this week, Chandler was finally cleared of all back pain and has finally started putting up numbers.

It came at a great time too, considering both Paul Millsap and Nikola Jokic are out, making Chandler an even better pickup offensively. In his last game, he put up 18 points and eight rebounds in a loss. While the Detroit Pistons have played well defensively this year, they are on a six-game losing streak. In that span of time, the Pistons have the 11th-worst defensive rating in the league.

Chandler’s price has dropped $300 on DraftKings over the past three games. With his increase in minutes and Denver’s lack of other offensive options, Chandler is a safe pick who could break out.
