High Value C

Tyson Chandler-Phoenix Suns (5,300): Chandler is coming off his best fantasy game of the season after posting 14-21-0 against the Pelicans on Sunday for a season-high 37.2 fantasy points. He has double-digit rebounds in three straight games with at least 20 fantasy points in each of those contests and five of his last seven. Tonight, he gets a great matchup against the Knicks who allow the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing centers. He’s a solid play tonight at just over 5K as he looks to help the Suns to a win at home. 

Steven Adams-Oklahoma City Thunder (5,300): Another good option at just over 5K is Thunder center Steven Adams. Adams has been excellent over his last two games with 24-10-1 against the Rockets on Friday for 37.5 fantasy points and 16-8-2 against the Celtics for 32.6 fantasy points against Boston on Sunday. He has at least 24 fantasy points in three straight and five of his last seven, so I give him a ever-so-slight edge over Chandler. The Blazers have given up the second-most fantasy points to opposing centers over their last five, so they’re a great matchup as well. ∗∗∗∗

Bismack Biyombo-Orlando Magic (4,800): Both Biyombo and fellow-center Nikola Vucevic are gametime decisions tonight as the Magic visit Atlanta. If both are active, Biyombo is still expected to start since he was before his shoulder injury. He played through the injury on Saturday with 12-6-4 in 34 minutes against the Nuggets for 29.2 fantasy points. He has at least 22 fantasy points in four of his last six games, and makes a smart play tonight against Atlanta as long as he is confirmed to be in the lineup before tipoff.

Guillermo Hernangomez-New York Knicks (3,800): The Knicks are also dealing with injuries in the middle with Joakim Noah still limited from playing a ton of time and Kyle O’Quinn questionable with an ankle injury that cost him a game on Sunday. In O’Quinn’s absence, Hernangomez had 26.9 fantasy points on 6-12-1 with a pair of blocks and a steal. If he gets 20 minutes or so of playing time tonight agains the Suns, Hernangomez is a cheap flier worth looking at. No O’Quinn-∗ With O’Quinn-
