High Value C

Festus Ezeli-Golden State Warriors (4,600): Ezeli is working his way back from a toe injury, but he looked good on Saturday in the second night of back-to-back games.  In that contest, he had eight points, six boards, and a block for 20.7 fantasy points in his 16 minutes. Ezeli has plenty of upside, but his minutes can fluctuate from game to game based on matchup.  With Bosh and Whiteside, the Warriors will need some interior defense, so they may go to Ezeli early and often alongside Draymond Green tonight. 

Andrea Bargnani-Brooklyn Nets (3,500): Maybe the new coaching staff with find extra playing time for Bargnani who has flashed his offensive potential a couple times this year, but has been relegated to just a few minutes a night in most of Lionel Hollins’ rotations.  Bargnani is extremely, extremely high-risk, but if you totally punt your center position, he’s the best minimum play unless the Spurs announce early that Duncan will be resting.
