High Salary C

Marc Gasol, MEM vs DET ($7400): Gasol has averaged 39.8 fantasy points in his three games since returning from injury. In his only other meeting with the Pistons this season, he exploded for 58 fantasy points. ***

High Value C

Clint Capela, HOU at SAC ($5700): Capela rested on Friday, but he’s expected to play on Sunday with Nene rested. He has averaged 27.9 fantasy points in the last four games, and the Kings have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to centers in the last 10 games. ***

Alan Williams, PHO vs DAL ($4600)/Alex Len ($4200):  Williams and Len have both showed potential over the last few weeks. One or the other has approached 30 or more fantasy points in eight of the last 10 games, but it is unpredictable which will get the call on a given day. **

Georgios Papagiannis, SAC vs HOU ($3800): Papagiannis has averaged 19.1 fantasy points in his last five games, and is getting more minutes with Kosta Koufos shut down. On Sunday, he faces a Rockets squad that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to centers in the last 10 games.   **
