High Value C

Clint Capela-Houston Rockets (5,000): Capela has been putting together some very nice games int he middle for the Rockets lately, and he’ll take on Steven Adams and the ‘Stache brothers tonight in OKC. Capela had eight points, 13 boards, and five blocks for 35.1 fantasy points against Embiid and he Sixers on Monday and has at least 28 fantasy points in three of his last four. He’s turning in solid rebounds and blocks and picking up scoring where he can get it. While he doesn’t have the sizzle of Embiid, he is playing more regular minutes and contributing across the boards for Houston. ∗∗∗

John Henson-Milwaukee Bucks (4,000): Henson has long been a fantasy tease producing good numbers when given playing time but never being a consistent enough option to be confident in.  He is expected to move into the starting lineup tonight, though, for the Bucks as the take on the Hawks which could be the dawning of a new era for Henson. He has a great block rate and should produce near a low-level double-double if he gets 25 minutes a game. He’ll still lose a lot of playing time to Greg Monroe, but even though he’s risky tonight definitely watch him to see how much run he’ll get going forward.∗∗

Kelly Olynyk-Boston Celtics (3,900): FanDuel doesn’t believe in Olynyk’s two good games (30.9 fantasy points and 28.2 fantasy points) which he followed with a disappointing 14.1 fantasy points in New Orleans. He burned his owners badly in that contest, but he is still a good cheap option tonight if Al Horford is still out. No Horford-∗∗∗∗ Horford returns-∗∗
