High Value C

Enes Kanter, NY vs CHI ($5,900): Kanter posted 24.8 fantasy points in just 15 minutes against the Hornets on Saturday. The 15 minutes is the big concern with Kanter, but it was nice to see him end up around value despite the limited playing time. The Knicks rotation is all over the place as they try to figure out things heading into next season. Kyle O’Quinn may see more minutes, but Kanter has the much higher upside if he ends up playing 25 minutes. The matchup is good as the Bulls rank 29th against the position in their last 15 games. **

Al Jefferson, IND vs LAL ($4,700): Jefferson logged 30.3 fantasy points in 26 minutes against the Wizards on Saturday. It was a nice follow up from his 43.4 fantasy point performance on game prior against the Raptors. With Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis nursing injuries, Jefferson has seen his playing time go up. If he picks up the start, he’s a solid bet to give you at least 20 fantasy points. ***

Cristiano Felicio, CHI at NY ($3,900): Felicio picked up the start with the Bulls resting Robin Lopez, who went through a grueling stretch where he was playing 12 minutes a night after not playing for a month. Lopez might be back as the starter, but Felicio will pick up the majority of the minutes. There’s not a lot of upside with Felicio, who cracked 25 fantasy points in 30 minutes against the Cavaliers, but he plays and has the opportunity to rebound and score. If you can make up the value elsewhere, he’s a decent low end option who gets playing time, if nothing else. ***
