DraftKings daily picks: Fantasy basketball lineup-March 21
High Salary C
Karl-Anthony Towns-Minnesota Timberwolves (8,800): Towns has played 40 minutes in each of his last two games, but he has had two games off since playing against the Rockets on Friday. In that game, Towns had 54.25 fantasy points on 31 points and 11 rebounds with two steals, a block, and a rebound. Towns will be in an odd matchup tonight with the Warriors who hase allowed the fifth-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing centers over their last five games and have struggled against opposing bigs all season. Golden State will likely be without Andrew Bogut as well which could lead to a huge game for Towns. However, there is definitely some risk in rolling with KAT tonight since he could play limited minutes due to matchup or if the game gets non-competitive. ∗∗
Al Horford-Atlanta Hawks (6,600): Horford has had a few really good games lately mixed in with some mediocre performances. He has at least 40 fantasy points in three of his last five games posting good stat lines against the Rockets, Nuggets, and Grizzlies. His down games in between have seen him produce closer to 25 fantasy points against the Nuggets and Pacers. Tonight, he’ll face the Wizards who he had 14 points and nine rebounds against earlier this season. He should be near a double-double again tonight in an important game for Atlanta as they battle for position in the race for the 3-6 playoff seeds in the Eastern Conference. ∗∗∗
