High Value PF

Gorgui Dieng-Minnesota Timberwolves (5,100): Last night against Detroit, Dieng had 31.5 fantasy points on 6-12-2 with three blocks last night in Detroit, Dieng has over 27 fantasy points in five of his last six games. He doesn’t score a ton of points most night, but he gets plenty of non-scoring production to still make him worth a mid-range salary.∗∗∗

Dario Saric-Philadelphia 76ers (4,800): Over the last few games, the Sixers had been giving Saric extra minutes with both Robert Covington and Joel Embiid out. He has scored in double-digits in six of his last seven games with at least 21 fantasy points in each of those six contests. Tonight, he takes on the Heat, and could be set up for big minutes like the 36 minutes he played against San Antonio. Covington/Embiid out-∗∗∗∗

Frank Kaminsky-Charlotte Hornets (4,200): Frank Kaminsky is also getting more playing time as a result of injury and is coming into tonight’s game off of a career-best 24 points in 24 minutes against the Warriors on his way to 40.75 fantasy points. He is lined up for as many minutes as he can handle tonight with Cody Zeller out, Miles Plumlee just acquired, and Mike Tobey just up from the D-League. He has at least 21 fantasy points in five of his last nine games, and has a ton of upside for someone so affordable. The only risk with the former Wisconsin Badger is that Kaminsky will be in a horrible matchup as he faces Rudy Gobert and the Jazz.∗∗∗∗

James Michael McAdoo-Golden State Warriors (3,200): If you’re rolling the dice with an ultra-cheap player tonight, check out McAdoo who has played 17+ minutes in four of his last five games with at least 17 fantasy points in three of those games. He had a solid 10-9-0 for 23.25 fantasy points on Thursday although his numbers did get a boost from Draymond Green’s absence. Green should return tonight, but McAdoo is still on the radar as a cheap dice-roll.∗
