High Value PF

Markieff Morris-Phoenix Suns (5,200): Th new regime in Phoenix looks like a positive change for Markieff Morris who got the start and dropped 30 points in Earl Watson’s first game as interim head coach.  Morris added 11 rebounds, six assists, two blocks, and a steal for an impressive 54.2 fantasy points against the Raptors.  Tonight, he’ll be in a great matchup to produce again since the Rockets allow the most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PF. Morris will be widely owned after his big game Tuesday, but he’s by far the best PF play at his price with the most upside on a points-per-dollar basis at the position tonight. ∗∗∗∗∗

Josh Smith-Houston Rockets (4,200): Smith started at center for the Rockets on Tuesday since Clint Capela was injured and Dwight Howard was suspended.  Howard is expected back tonight, but Capela could still be out and allow Smith to continue to play extended minutes.  In addition, Terrence Jones won’t be available after getting into a car accident on Wednesday (for real). Smith has been a solid value play since returning to the Rockets and has at least 23 fantasy points in four of his seven games with Houston. If Capela is out, Smith should get plenty of time at PF/C tonight making him worth a flier at this price. No Capela-∗∗∗ With Capela-∗∗
