3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 12/12/16
DeMarcus Cousins, C, Sacramento Kings
FanDuel Price: $11,000
It has been a tale of two seasons for Sacramento Kings from a fantasy perspective this season.
They started the season playing at a very low pace -- ranking 29th through their first 11 games -- before eventually making a shift and playing small (with DeMarcus Cousins at center) more often. Over the past month, they have been tied for the league's ninth-highest pace.
Cousins' fantasy production has seen a boost from this, as he's averaging 54.3 FanDuel points per game over the past month after only averaging 43.0 through those first 11 games.
He's in a good spot to continue with that strong production by facing the Los Angeles Lakers, who are playing at the league's fourth-fastest pace, rank 27th in defensive rating, and have allowed top-six fantasy production to opponents at both the power forward and center positions.
