High Value SF

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist-Charlotte Hornets (5,200): Kidd-Gilchrist has been picking up his play lately and has over 25 fantasy points in five of his last seven including his 28.75 fantasy points against tonight’s opponent the Blazers. MKG had 9-5-4 with three blocks against Portland two weeks ago and is coming off of a similar line with 9-6-0 with four blocks in just 19 minutes against the Kings on Saturday for 26.5 fantasy points. His minutes against Sacramento were limited because of foul trouble, and if he avoids that tonight he should be closer to the 30 minutes he normally gets.∗∗∗

Solomon Hill-New Orleans Pelicans (4,000): For most of this season Hill was in the starting lineup but not in any way fantasy relevant. However, he has put up big numbers in three straight games with 31.5 fantasy points, 30.5 fantasy points, and 225.7 fantasy points. He should be lined up for 30+ minutes tonight in Toronto, and he will be a good value if he can continue his recent momentum.∗∗

Sam Dekker-Houston Rockets (3,090): Dekker continues to get plenty of playing time with the Rockets second unit and has logged at least 25 minutes now in seven of his last eight games. He has at least 16 fantasy points in five of his last six games with his best games during that stretch resulting in 43.25 fantasy points, 31.25 fantasy points,  and 24.5 fantasy points. Even with Ryan Anderson back, Dekker still gets enough playing time to be a flier and produced in multiple categories when he’s on the floor. He’s also an outside sharp-shooter so the DraftKings 3PM bonus comes in handy.∗
