High Value SF

P.J. Tucker-Phoenix Suns (4,800): The Suns injury woes continue to mount and T.J. Warren who was a young SF with promise is out for the season now as well after a broken foot. P.J. Tucker will pick up plenty of playing time in Warren’s absence and has played at least 35 minutes in six of his last seven healthy games.  He had 23.2 fantasy points against the Raptors on Tuesday on ten points, six rebounds, two assists, and two steals giving him at least that many fantasy points in six of his lsat seven games where he wasn’t forced to leave early due to injury.  Tucker usually doesn’t go off in any one category, but he can be a nice multi-category threat and should be ready to produce tonight against the Rockets who allow the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing SF. ∗∗∗

Stanley Johnson-Detroit Pistons (4,000): Johnson is a really good play tonight against the Knicks given his recent form and the opportunity he may have to fill in for the injured Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. KCP left last night’s game early and Johnson started the second half although his status for tonight has not been clarified.  Johnson played 30 minutes last night and had 11 points, nine boards, and two assists for a solid 21.8 fantasy points. He has at least 19 fantasy points in four of his last five games which makes him a solid value play even in just his normal role coming off the bench. I think Johnson is one of the best values on FanDuel tonight at any position, and definitely should be considered for your SF spot tonight. ∗∗∗∗∗

Corey Brewer-Houston Rockets (3,700): Brewer continues to earn his spot int he Rockets rotation and has now played at least 30 minutes in three straight games.  He has over 21 fantasy points in three of his last six games and fie of his last ten, but his production can still fluctuate from game-to-game depending on flow.  Since the Suns like to play fast, look for Brewer to be on tonight and be a solid play against a Phoenix team that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing SF so far this season. ∗∗∗
