Jonas Valanciunas recorded 22 points (10-15 FG, 2-2 FT), 20 rebounds, and two assists over 31 minutes in Saturday's 105-88 win over the Lakers.

Fantasy Impact:

Valanciunas followed up Friday's 13 & 25 game with a huge 22 & 20 game to close out a stellar February in which he snared double-digit rebounds in 10-of-11 contests. While Valanciunas's scoring dipped a bit (12.7 points), the 14.3 rebounds he averaged mark the best month of his eight-year career. Over halfway through his first full season with the Grizzlies, Valanciunas is putting up the best season of his career in a team that's a great fit for his style of play. With a roster full of young scorers, Valanciunas is the veteran cog in the paint to give his guys second chance opportunities and allows them to rack up easy assists. Valanciunas will kick off March as the sixth overall center in fantasy.
