High Value C

Tristan Thompson-Cleveland Cavaliers (5,200): Thompson has at least 26 fantasy points in three straight and five of his last seven games. While he doesn’t offer the offensive games of the more expensive options, he is pretty low-risk against the Clippers tonight since he’ll play a ton of minutes against the LA bigs and likely be near a solid double-double.∗∗

Bismack Biyombo-Orlando Magic (4,300): Biyombo has been playing more consistent minutes than Henson, but he hasn’t had quite the same level of production. In each of the Magic’s last three games, Biyombo has played 30+ minutes with 10 fantasy points, 17.5 fantasy points, and 21.5 fantasy points.  The situation in the Orlando front court definitely merits watching, but against Memphis Biyombo is nothing more than a flier play. 

John Henson-Milwaukee Bucks (4,000): The Bucks center carousel continues to spin, but Henson has shown he can be productive when he gets playing time He had 20-7-1 with three blocks against Orlando on Sunday for 38.25 fantasy points and followed that up with 7-9-2 and two more blocks on Tuesday in the Bucks’ win over Cleveland. Since the Nets have Brook Lopez, I would thin that Jason Kidd would lean heavily on Henson’s defensive prowess again tonight, but it’s still a unpredictable situation with Henson, Greg Monroe, and Miles Plumlee all battling for minutes.
