High Value PF

Marvin Williams-Charlotte Hornets (4,800): Williams has been up and down all series and has actually been held scoreless in three of the six games including in Game 6 when he went 0-7. The strange thing is that his two good games have been very good and he had over 34 fantasy points in Game 3 and Game 5 while shooting a combined 12-19. Williams will need to bring that kind of game if he wants to help Charlotte continue their playoff run since another zero in the scoring column will go a long way in ending the Hornets season.  For fantasy, Williams is obviously a very boom-or-bust option.

Patrick Patterson-Toronto Raptors (3,500): Patterson is the other sub-5K PF who will get playing time tonight, but he hasn’t set the series on fire to be sure.  Patterson hasn’t reached 20 fantasy points in any of the last four games after strong the series with 20 and 26.5 fantasy points in the first two games.  He is getting playing time, though, and is the only sub-4K PF who is a good option for today.
