High Value C

Robin Lopez-New York Knicks (5,100): Lopez gets much more stable playing time than the Boston options and will need to deal with Rudy Gobert of the Jazz tonight.  RoLo is coming off a double-double on Monday against the Sixers when he posted 36 fantasy points on 16 points and ten boards.  He has at least 20 fantasy points in eight of his last nine games making him a relatively safe cheap play at center if you don’t splurge on a big-name star. ∗∗

Kelly Olynyk-Boston Celtics (4,800): Boston’s revolving door in the front court seems to have thrust Olynyk back into a productive place for fantasy basketball over the last few games.  Olynyk has double-digit scoring in four games in a row and six of his last eight contests.  He has at least 20 fantasy points in five of those eight games including 30.75 fantasy points on Monday in Dallas and an impressive 42.73 fantasy points against the Suns last Friday night at home.  Tonight, the Celtics visit Toronto to take on Amir Johnson’s former team, but I actually like Olynyk a little better than Johnson tonight at his price. Who knows what coach Brad Stevens has is store for us though…∗∗

Frank Kaminsky-Charlotte Hornets (4,500): Kaminsky has at least 14 points in four of his last five games and is playing at least 25 minutes a night in the current Hornets’ rotation.  He has 21 fantasy points in each of those five games and is a very solid cheap play against the Thunder tonight. ∗∗∗∗
