While the Clippers trading forward Tobias Harris to the Sixers was a good move
with an eye towards the team’s future, it leaves them thinner up front than they
were last week. While they picked up the talented young Ivica Zubac in a
separate deal with the Lakers, they waived Marcin Gortat and moved Boban
Marjanovic to Philly.
A yet-to-gel frontcourt rotation could be the perfect chance for Karl-Anthony
Towns to put up a big night. Montrezl Harrell and Zubac are skilled, but neither
are disciplined enough to contain Towns for an entire game. The big man, coming
off a 52.5 fantasy point performance in New Orleans won’t come cheap, but he
could definitely be worth his salary.
On DraftKings, Towns can be rostered for $10,000. That’s a good chunk of
cash–he’s the sixth-most expensive player for the night–but putting that
amount down for a player to anchor your fantasy squad isn’t a bad idea. If
you’re looking for a cheaper option, it sounds like Jeff Teague is going to play
tonight, and has a lower salary than he typically would ($5,500) because he’s on
his way back from injury.
