Top 4 Power Forwards

  1. LaMarcus Aldridge ($9,300) vs. Utah Jazz
  2. Tobias Harris ($7,600) vs. Indiana Pacers
  3. James Johnson ($6,000) vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
  4. Derrick Favors ($5,300) vs. San Antonio Spurs

Rationale:

  • Tobias Harris has morphed into a FanDuel NBA lineup staple during his 21-game stint with the L.A. Clippers. Since being dealt by the Detroit Pistons, Harris is averaging 19.5 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game. Throughout the entire 2017-18 campaign, Harris has been able to establish himself as a legitimate threat on the perimeter, as he has connected on 162 shots from 3-point range at a 40.9 percent clip. Both marks are the highest of his seven-year career.
  • The Utah Jazz have won 10 straight games as power forward Derrick Favors has made sizable contributions in scoring and rebounding. Favors has become a low cost commodity in FanDuel NBA leagues, especially after his 19-point, seven-rebound, five-assist, one-steal and one-block effort against the Dallas Mavericks Thursday night. The 6’10” forward has provided the Jazz with an efficient scoring option, as he has converted 50 percent or more of his attempts from the field in 10 of his past 11 appearances.
