High Value PF

Ryan Anderson-Houston Rockets (5,400): Anderson stumbled last night in a tough matchup against the Hawks totaling just 16.4 fantasy points on 11-2-2 in 34 minutes. He had posted 37.4 fantasy points and 43.7 fantasy points in his two previous games, though, so there is still plenty of upside to like at this price. He remains boom-or-bust since he relies on his outside shot so much.∗∗

JaMychal Green-Memphis Grizzlies (4,400): Green  has returned from his knee injury and played over 25 minutes in each of his last three games. His fantasy output hasn’t been great with just 20.1 and 19.1 fantasy points in his last two contests, but the fact that he’s back and picking up all the minutes makes him a decent option tonight against the injury-depleted Thunder. He is usually around a low-grade double-double when he gets that many minutes and could be good for 25+ fantasy points.∗∗

Lucas Nogueira-Toronto Raptors (4,100): Nogueira has been finding minutes and ways to produce despite a suddenly-crowded Raptors front court with Jared Sullinger and Patrick Patterson. Nogueira had 10-5-0 with four blocked shots against Boston on Wednesday for 25 fantasy points and has at least 22 fantasy points in three of his last four games and five of his last six. The Raptors will be in a good matchup in Orlando tonight, and I like Nogueira’s potentialas long as he keeps getting minutes.∗∗∗

Marquese Chriss-Phoenix Suns (3,800): The Suns’ rookie keeps getting playing time and has made the most of it this week with 20-6-0 for 30.2 fantasy points against the Grizzlies and 9-5-1 for 24.5 fantasy points against the Clippers. He takes on the Kings tonight in what should be a high-scoring game. I like Chriss’s upside, but he’s still a boom-or-bust play despite his role as the starter.∗∗
