High Value SF

DeMarre Carroll, BKN vs CHA ($5,900): The Hornets are 29th against small forwards in their last 15 games. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson moving to the starting lineup has helped Carroll value as it takes some pressure off of him offensively. Carroll has been over 30 fantasy points in three straight. He’s been a reliable play all season and the matchup is good for him again on Wednesday. Expect him back over 30 fantasy points. ***

Robert Covington, PHI vs MEM ($5,700): Covington has been over 30 fantasy points in four of his last five. His one miss came in a game where he played only 24 minutes. He had 32.5 fantasy points against the Grizzlies on Jan. 22. Memphis are doing their best Hinkie Sixers impression, losing at every turn while the Sixers are preparing for a playoff run. Covington has stepped up in recent games and should have no issue going over 30 fantasy points once again. ****

Wayne Ellington, MIA vs NY ($4,600): The Knicks are 28th against shooting guards in their last 15 games. Ellington had 32.25 fantasy points against the Nuggets on Monday and 33.5 fantasy points against the Knicks on Jan. 5. He needs 20.1 fantasy points to reach value on Wednesday. He’s playing big minutes for the Heat right now and continues to hoist up shots when he’s in the game. His value is largely tied to his scoring, but with the Knicks defense, scoring should be no problem. ***
