Jonas Valanciunas scored 13 points with 10 rebounds, three assists, and a steal in the Pelicans’ 135-123 win over the Kings on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Valanciunas may not be the best defender, but he’s been a great rebounder and his size offers a mismatch over many of the smaller centers in the league. That could prove to be a huge factor in the Pelicans opening playoff series depending on if they get the Thunder or not.
