High Value C

Jonas Valanciunas-Toronto Raptors (5,600): Valanciunas has at least 25 fantasy points in four of his last five games including double-doubles against the Nets and Magic in the last eight days. He gets a great matchup against the Blazers tonight who have struggled to defend opposing bigs all season. “Big V” should be good for near a double-double and near 30 fantasy points tongith.∗∗

Bismack Biyombo-Orlando Magic (4,900): Biyombo continues to start for Orlando, and the team seems committed to making him their long-term answer in the middle with trade rumors swirling over Nikola Vucevic. Biyombo has at least 26 fantasy points in three of his last four games and at least 23 fantasy points in seven of his last eight. He doesn’t usually go off in any one category but offers good boards and blocks to go with a little bit of scoring to make him a solid option. Tonight he’s in a tough matchup against the Grizzlies, but you can still go with him if you have to spend under 5K.∗∗

Montrezl Harrell-Houston Rockets (4,500): My favorite option under 5K at center for tonight, though, is Rockets’  big man Montrezl Harrell. Harrell has stepped in nicely for Clint Capela and produced 19 fantasy points, 28.1 fantasy points, and 27.1 fantasy points in his last three games. He had 17-3-3 with three blocks against the Suns for that 28.1-fantasy-point game, and he’ll face Phoenix again tonight making him the best cheap option to plug-and-play in the middle.∗∗∗∗
