Robert Covington Effective Against Kings
6 years agoMinnesota Timberwolves forward Robert Covington scored 13 points on 4-for-9 shooting in Monday's win over the Sacramento Kings. He also added five rebounds and a pair of assists to go along with two steals and a block. It was an efficient night for Covington, who led Minnesota in minutes as they took advantage of a 30-point halftime lead to give some rest to a few other key pieces. Covington is a great jackknife for fantasy owners, a player capable of fitting into most builds and providing value. The Timberwolves play the Pistons on Wednesday, who've done a good job limiting points and rebounds this season to around the league average. While this keeps Covington on the radar in season-long formats, it does make him a risk in DFS lineups, though his ability to do so much on the defensive end gives him what should be a good floor.
