High Value C

Nikola Jokic-Denver Nuggets (5,000): Jokic played very well on Saturday against Detroit finishing with 37.5 fantasy points on 17 points, five rebounds, three assists, three blocks, and two steals.  He should keep getting extra playing time with Kenneth Faried injured and is a good value option as long as he stays in the starting lineup.  He’s still a little risky though since his minutes still fluctuate from game to game.

Willie Cauley-Stein-Sacramento Kings (4,300): Cauley-Stein has been playing big minutes for Sacramento in their recent surge and has played extremely well for a cheap center with double-digit rebounds in three straight and at least 28 fantasy points in each of those three outings.  With the Hornets short-handed up front, Cauley-Stein should be a great bargain once again. 

Spencer Hawes-Charlotte Hornets (3,800): Due to the outbreak of injuries in Charlotte’s front court, Hawes has been pressed into the starting lineup and has played pretty well overall with a double-double on Friday with 16 points and ten rebounds for a total of 34.5 fantasy points. He followed that with 24.5 fantasy points on Saturday against the Knicks.  He should be a solid value play again since Cody Zeller is out and Hawes will keep getting all the time he can handle.
