High Value PF

Gorgui Dieng-Minnesota Timberwolves (5,700): The Rockets have struggled defending opposing PF all season which sets up well for Dieng tonight who has been productive when he has gotten playing time lately.  His minutes have been inconsistent, but he did have 18 points an 13 rebounds for 40.25 fantasy points against the Kings two games ago before playing just 24 minutes against the Blazers.  Since its such a beatable matchup, I expect the Wolves to go to Dieng a lot in this game especially since he has had success against Houston this season.  His uneven playing time makes him risky, but his matchup give him lots of upside. 

Trey Lyles-Utah Jazz (3,400): Lyles got the spot start last night for Derrick Favors and he was productive in his 32 minutes totaling 34 fantasy points on 22 points, six boards, and two assists.  He has reached 30 fantasy points in each of his last two starts, and he’ll be a great play if Favors is sidelined again tonight. No Favors-∗∗∗∗ With Favors-

John Henson-Milwaukee Bucks (3,300): Henson played great yesterday in the Bucks win in Phily totaling 37 fantasy points on 18 points, ten boards, and two blocks.  When he has been given time he produces with at least 28 fantasy points the last four games in which he has played 20 minutes. Henson’s minutes are uncertain which make him risky, but he’ll dominate the Magic if he gets extended run tonight. 

Chris McCullough-Brooklyn Nets (3,300): McCullough  could end up playing huge minutes tonight depending on the status of Thomas Robinson.  McCullough would be the next man up for Brooklyn after they’ve already chosen to shut down Thomas Young and Brook Lopez.  McCullough had played over 20 minutes in five straight before last night’s game and has at least 20 fantasy points in three of those five contests.  The Nets will get to give the rookie out of Syracuse a good long look in the next few games if Robinson is unable to go starting tonight against the Wizards.
