Anthony Davis and LeBron James are the safest options this game, and will definitely dominate the proceedings. But Timberwolves’ Karl-Anthony Towans can’t be ruled out, not after a seaosn he is having. He has been phenomenal. In fact, his overall impact on the team, not on the results, is even better than Davis and James. So you can go with him as well, but only in Grand League, we would say.
