High Value PF

Taj Gibson-Chicago Bulls (5,300): Gibson has helped fill the void in the middle left by Pau Gasol’s knee injury.  He had a nice game last night with 15 points and ten rebounds for 41 fantasy points against Utah.  He has at least 25 fantasy points in three of his last four games and his only down game was when he was severely limited by his hamstring injury.  He looked healthy last night, though, and will get another heavy workload tonight against the Kings who have been giving up plenty of fantasy points to opposing PF and C throughout the season. 

Bobby Portis-Chicago Bulls (4,500): Against the Kings, Portis should get plenty of time alongside Taj Gibson tonight as they continue to fill in for the injured Pau Gasol and Joakim Noah. Portis posted a double-double on Thursday against Brooklyn with 12 points and 14 rebounds on his way to 34 fantasy points and followed that with a solid 22.75 fantasy points in 20 minutes last night. He has at least 22 fantasy points in each of his last three games and will continue to be very involved tonight making him a nice buy at this price. 

Amir Johnson-Boston Celtics (3,800): Johnson had a big game last night in Philadelphia alongside Jared Sullinger finishing with 18 points and eight rebounds along with a pair of blocks for 30.6 fantasy points.  Johnson has at least 17 fantasy points in each of his last four games with two of those contests resulting in over 30 fantasy points. Johnson is in a good matchup against the Magic, so he could be a nice cheap play as well if you decide to spend big at other spots.
