High Value SF

DeMarre Carroll-Toronto Raptors (4,600): Carroll had a massive game in Game 2 against Miami with 21 points and 36.5 fantasy points. He didn’t match it for the rest of the series, though, and was limited to under 30 minutes in games five and six. He did play 34 minutes in Game 7 totaling 23 fantasy points on 14 points, five rebounds, and two assists. Carroll still isn’t 100% but he’s matched up with Paul George, Dwyane Wade, and now LeBron James which has definitely forced him to step right in as the Raptors defensive stopper. His offense is hit-or-miss, but he’s a solid value play if you can’t go big with LeBron and KD. ∗∗

Harrison Barnes-Golden State Warriors (4,300): Barnes had 20 fantasy points in Game 1 against OKC with 12 points, five rebounds, and two assists in his 33 minutes. He will continue to get enough playing time to contribute throughout the rest of the series, but he isn’t even close to the primary option on offense which results in his production being a bit uneven. Barnes is relatively low-risk, though, since he does have at least 15 fantasy points in each of Golden State’s last six games. ∗∗
