Dwight Howard posts big double-double in Monday's win

by Dave Kluge | Tue, Feb 11th 9:35am EST

Dwight Howard scored 14 efficient points (6-6 FG, 2-4 FT) and snared 15 boards over 25 minutes in Monday's 125-100 win over the Suns.

Fantasy Impact:

Howard saw an uptick in minutes in Monday's blowout win, but his limited usage hinders his ceiling. While he has registered seven double-doubles already this year, his production has been too sporadic to rely on nightly in fantasy. Howard is clearly the best center on the Lakers roster but in the midst of his 15th season the Lakers are most likely saving his legs for bigger minutes in their potential playoff run. He's only averaging 19.6 minutes per game this season. Still available in about half of leagues, he's a solid streaming option in potential blowout wins but not someone you want to plug-and-play every night.
