High Value SF

Josh Richardson, MIA vs PHO ($6,400): Richardson has been over value in every game since the break. He’s coming off a strong 36.8 fantasy point game against the Pistons. The injury to Tyler Johnson has opened up more opportunities for the Miami forward and he’s grabbed the reigns. The Suns are the Suns and they are on a back-to-back. Richardson should have his typical solid outing, scoring 15-plus points and chipping in with rebounds and defense. ****

Reggie Bullock, DET at CLE ($4,900): Bullock has been over value in three straight and is coming off back-to-back games where he had 29 fantasy points. Ish Smith is struggling to score and Bullock has picked up the slack on the perimeter. He needs 21.5 fantasy points to be at value on Monday. The Cavaliers defense is still shaky and Bullock has the scoring chops to put up points on them. ***

Jayson Tatum, BOS at CHI ($4,600): Tatum has now played well in recent contests, but he is coming off a solid outing against the Rockets and his salary is down to where he needs 20.2 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. This one is largely about the matchup as the Bulls are 27th against the position in their last 15 games. He hasn’t shot well since the finger injury and he doesn’t do enough in other categories to typically make up that value, but the matchup is good and the salary is low. He’ll be around value as a low-cost option. ***
