Top 4 Centers

  1. Rudy Gobert ($8,000) vs. Dallas Mavericks
  2. Nikola Vucevic ($7,900) vs. Philadelphia 76ers
  3. Al Horford ($6,800) vs. New York Knicks
  4. Enes Kanter ($6,800) vs. Boston Celtics

Rationale:

  • A streak of 13 consecutive games with at least one block from Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert was snapped against the Phoenix Suns in the final game before All-Star weekend. Gobert made the Portland Trail Blazers pay Friday night, as he swatted away four shots, marking the sixth time in 33 appearances this year he has totaled four or more blocks. The potential for massive shot-blocking numbers along with his penchant for collecting double-doubles makes Gobert an ideal center candidate for all FanDuel NBA rosters.
  • FanDuel NBA players are hoping for a bounce-back performance from Boston Celtics center Al Horford Saturday night. Horford tallied more rebounds and assists than he did points on the night, as the Detroit Pistons limited him to three points, five rebounds and four assists in 26 minutes. The New York Knicks serve as the ideal opponent for Horford, as he has averaged 15.1 points, 8.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists against them in 32 career appearances.
