High Value C

Myles Turner-Indiana Pacers (5,300): Turner has been a beast lately for the Pacers and has become a huge part of the team’s offense.  He has scored in double digits in seven straight games and has at least 24 fantasy points in each of his last six.  He had 20 points and six boards against the Hawks in his first start alongside Ian Mahinmi, and he’s a great option tonight against the Nuggets.  He faced Denver on the Pacers recent road trip and finished with 42.25 fantasy points on 25 points, seven rebounds, two assists, and two blocks.  Turner is a great option right now whether he is starting or coming off the bench. ∗∗∗∗∗

Willie Cauley-Stein-Sacramento Kings (5,200): Cauley-Stein had a slow game against the Pelicans on Thursday playing just 15 minutes and getting owned by Ryan Anderson.  He will look to bounce back tonight against the Grizzlies, but he may again have issues with their small-ball attack. Cayley-Stein had at least 28 fantasy points in four of his last five games before his bad game in the Big Easy, so he’ll look to return to that level tonight as he continues his rookie season which is bound to come with a few ups and downs like his last game. ∗

Nikola Jokic-Denver Nuggets (4,900): Jokic has been playing inconsistent minutes, but has had pretty consistent production with at least 35 fantasy points in three of his last four games.  He had 15 points and ten boards on Thursday in Washington matching his output from Monday in Atlanta. The Nuggets have a bunch of options at center, but Jokic continues to show he can produce fantasy points in a hurry when given the opportunity. ∗∗∗

Omer Asik-New Orleans Pelicans (3,400): Asik had one of his best games of the season against the Kings on Thursday and could be in for a bigger workload if Anthony Davis is out tonight.  He played 27 minutes against the Kings and totaled 31.25 fantasy points on eight points, 13 rebounds, and four blocks. The Nets have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing centers this season, so Asik will be a good cheap play if he gets the playing time against Brooklyn No Davis-∗∗∗ With Davis-∗∗
