High Value PF

Trevor Booker-Brooklyn Nets (5,900): Booker returned from a one-game absence with 14-14-1 against the Wizards on Monday to finish with a solid 38.5 fantasy points. He has at least 35 fantasy points in four of his last six games and is one of the most consistent PF options who is flying a little under the radar since he plays on the struggling Nets. ∗∗∗∗

Ryan Anderson-Houston Rockets (4,800): Anderson crashed back to earth with just 18 fantasy points on Monday on two points after scoring at least 13 in five of his previous six games. He had over 28 fantasy points in three of his previous four including back-to-back 30-fantasy-point games at the end of last week against the Warriors and Nuggets. Tonight, he’ll look to rediscover his shooting touch against the Lakers who are a good enough matchup to make him a boom-or-bust option under 5K. ∗∗

Dwight Powell-Dallas Mavericks (4,100): As the Mavericks continue to roll with no Dirk, Powell has stepped up lately and played some nice games. He has at least 19 fantasy points in four of his last five games including 28 fantasy points on Saturday against the Bulls on 17-8-1 and 25.75 against the Hornets on Monday with 15-7-0 and a block. With Andrew Bogut and Dirk out, Powell and Sarah Mejri will have to be the bigs tonight against the Kings. ∗∗∗∗

Josh McRoberts-Miami Heat (3,300): McBob has picked up a ton of playing time since James Johnson went down with injury and has been pretty solid lately with 25.5 and 25.25 fantasy points in his last two games. Tonight, he’ll have to deal with the Hawks big front line which will mean he’ll get lots of minutes against Atlanta. ∗∗
