High Value PF

Kelly Olynyk-Boston Celtics (5,200): DraftKings has adjusted more than other DFS sites to Olynyk’s two good games (34.25 fantasy points and 31 fantasy points) which he followed with a disappointing 16 fantasy points in New Orleans. He burned his owners badly in that contest, but he is still a good option tonight if Al Horford is still out. No Horford-∗ Horford returns-

Jon Leuer-Detroit Pistons (5,100): The Pistons have been relying on Jon Leuer heavily off the bench this season and he played a season-high 29 minutes on Monday with Andre Drummond missing the game with an ankle injury. Leuer had eight points, nine rebounds, and four assists against the Thunder in that game for 26.75 fantasy points. He has at least 23 fantasy points in six of his last seven games and is playing 25+ minutes every night for Detroit. He’s a safer investment than Olynyk but with lower upside if you’re spending around 5K on a PF tonight.∗∗∗

Channing Frye-Clevleand Cavaliers (3,600): Frye had 21 points last night aginst the Raptors in just 20 minutes and finished with over 30 fantasy points for the second game in a row. He has over 21 fantasy points in four of his last five, and he would probably cost a lot more if he hadn’t missed time earlier this season. Frye is a good play at this price in what should be a high-scoring game tonight in Indiana with a chance the Cavs rely more on their bench (like Frye) on the second night of their back-to-back.
