High Value SF

Brandon Ingram, LAL at OKC ($6,600): Ingram is listed as a game-time decision with a groin injury. It didn’t seem to bother him against the Nets as he posted 38.6 fantasy points on Friday. His all-around offensive ability could lead him to a big game against the Thunder given how poor their defense has looked in recent contests. He’s performed poorly in two games against Oklahoma City this season, but so has everyone on the Lakers. Things should go better for him on Sunday. ***

DeMarre Carroll, BKN vs MIL ($5,600): Carroll was a huge bust on Friday, contributing 7.2 fantasy points against the Lakers. This is a great opportunity for him to bounce back as the Bucks rank 27th against the position in their last 15 games. Carroll had 34.3 fantasy points against them on Jan. 26. There’s no way Carroll is held to under 10 fantasy points again. He’s too good of a player to struggle the way he did against Los Angeles and he won’t struggle on Sunday. ****

Taurean Prince, ATL at NY ($4,800): Prince posted a season high 50.6 fantasy points against the Celtics on Friday. He’s been hit-and-miss this season, hitting value in 54 percent of contests. He’s done well in two games against the Knicks, averaging 28.6 fantasy points in those contests. He needs 20.2 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. He won’t be at 50 fantasy points again in this one, but his success against New York this season has me feeling good about his chances to be over value on Sunday. ***
