High Value PF

Gorgui Dieng-Minnesota Timberwolves (5,600): Dieng posted over 30 fantasy points for the second game in a row scoring a season-high-matching 20 points against the Nuggets to go with eight rebounds for 34.1 fantasy points. Dieng gets a good matchup tonight against the Bucks, so look for another solid game from him alongside the rest of the Timberwolves’ young talent. ∗∗∗

Jon Leuer-Detroit Pistons (4,900): Leuer has at least 21 fantasy points in seven straight games and has continued his solid production since joining the starting unit. Leuer doesn’t’ have super-high upside, but he is a low-risk play since he has been consistent for etroit all season.∗∗∗

Dario Saric-Philadelphia 76ers (4,000): With the traffic jam that the Sixers have at PF, Sari has been sliding over and playing SF. He has found some nice room to operate at that spot, though, and has over 20 fantasy points in each of his last two games. He had 12-9-2 against the Kings for 26.8 fantasy points and followed that with 14-4-1 for 20.3 fantasy points against the Jazz last night. The Sixers rotation looks a little different seemingly every night, but they’ll cotninue to get a long look at Saric to see what they have in the rookie from Croatia.∗∗
