High Salary C
DeAndre Jordan, LAC at OKC ($7,900): Jordan had 51.25 fantasy points against the Thunder on Jan. 4. The Clippers are on a back-to-back, which is a bit concerning, but if the Thunder are without Steven Adams, Jordan should find success in this one. No Steven Adams means easy points and even easier rebounds for the Clippers center. If Adams plays, Jordan is a risk and you may want to look at Nikola Vucevic instead. ****
Jonas Valanciunas, TOR vs DAL ($6,800): You can’t stop Valanciunas right now, you can only hope to contain him. He had 50.25 fantasy points against the Pacers on Thursday. He’s been 10-plus fantasy points over value in six of his last seven. He needs 31.5 fantasy points to hit value on Friday. There’s no reason to doubt him given his level of play and the matchup. ****
Brook Lopez, LAL vs MIA ($6,600): Lopez had 18.5 fantasy points against the Heat on Mar. 1. With no Hassan Whiteside to deter him in the paint, Lopez should have an easier go of things on Friday. He needs 30.6 fantasy points to hit value in this one. He’s been over 40 fantasy points in three of his last four. His minutes are up and his production up. Expect another strong outing from the Lakers center on Friday. ****
