High Value SF

Wilson Chandler-Denver Nuggets (5,700): There aren’t any great cheap SF options on the board tonight, so try to avoid going too cheap at this spot. If you do, you can take a look at the Nuggets’ super-sub Wilson Chandler who definitely brings some upside as the takes the court tonight against the Sixers. Chandler has over 31 fantasy points in three of his last five games after posting 31.4 fantasy points on 17-7-2 on Wednesday against the Wolves. Tonight, he gets a good matchup against the Sixers, but his production is still a little volatile since he comes off the bench and can have some bad burns like Monday against the Clippers (just 6.3 fantasy points) and earlier this month against Dallas (just 3.7 fantasy points). The upside is there, but it comes with lots of risk.

Thabo Sefolosha-Atlanta Hawks (4,500): Aside from getting ‘Melo thrown out, Sefolosha continued to make an impact for the Hawks will nice scoring and solid countable stats against the Knicks on Wednesday. Sefolosha had 11 points giving him double-digits in four of his last five games. He has at least 19 fantasy points in four of those five games as well, and he contributes across the board in multiple categories in his role in the starting lineup for Atlanta. He’ll be in an entertaining matchup tonight against the Pistons, but he makes a solid sib-5K play at SF based on recent numbers. 

Dante Cunningham-New Orleans Pelicans (3,800): Cunningham missed a dozen games earlier this month with a fractured fibula, but he has been very good in his last three games since returning to no-restrictions minutes for New Orleans. He has 20.4, 20.2, and 24.3 fantasy points in those three games and was a big part of my successful FanDuel daly picks lineup on Wednesday when he had 6-9-3 for 24.3 fantasy points agains the Clippers. He’s a great value still and should get 30+ minutes against the Knicks tonight.∗∗
