Karl-Anthony Towns, C, Minnesota Timberwolves

DraftKings Price: $8,800

Another big man with a chance to put up big numbers tonight is Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns. Towns has faced the Los Angeles Lakers once this year already; he went off for 25 points, 16 boards, 6 dimes, 4 steals, and a block in a 124-120 win a couple of days before Halloween.

That's far from the first time he's dominated against them. He's faced the Lakers 12 times in his young career, and double-doubled in 11 of those games. Given that the Lakers are giving up the most points to opposing centers this year, it's pretty easy to see a way for him to match that feat once again.

As of this writing, we don't yet have a final total set for the game at FanDuel Sportsbook, but it's going to likely be one of the highest totals of the season. The last time the two teams played the total was set at 239.5, the only game that has been set above 239 this year, according to SportsDatabase.

We have Towns projected for 44.8 DraftKings points this evening with upside for a whopping 70.8.
