High Value PF

Domantas Sabonis, IND at POR ($6,000): Sabonis has been up-and-down in his last four games. He’s coming off a 29 fantasy point performance against the Jazz, which put him over value. His salary has dropped, which is a good sign as it allows him to exceed expectations. He needs 26 fantasy points to his value against the Trail Blazers. The Blazers are 18th against centers in their last 15 games. I like him to be around value in this one. ***

Taj Gibson, MIN at HOU ($5,400): Along with Jimmy Butler, Gibson is a guy I don’t worry about when it comes to showing up for Minnesota. He had 34.25 fantasy points against the Magic on Tuesday. He’s been up-and-down in recent contests, but he always gives strong effort and is a terror on the boards and in the paint. I think he’ll be at value in this one with a chance he goes slightly over. ***

Ryan Anderson, HOU vs MIN ($4,500): Anderson has been over value in three straight. With Trevor Ariza and Gerald Green out, Anderson is likely to see an increase in minutes and shots. If you’re looking to save money and grab a guy who is going to get a lot of three-point opportunities, Anderson is your best option. Given his salary, I think he’ll be at value and I like him to be well over given the circumstances. ****
