High Value PF

JaMychal Green, MEM at CHA ($5,800): Green had 25.75 fantasy points against the Sixers on Wednesday. He needs 26.3 fantasy points to reach value on Thursday. Tyreke Evans should be back in the lineup, which opens things up a bit more for Green. The matchup is certainly a good one as the Hornets rank 29th against small forwards and 30th against power forwards in their last 15 games. Green should push 40 fantasy points in this one. ***

Dirk Nowitzki, DAL vs UTA ($5,300): The Jazz are first against power forwards in their last 15 games, but Dirk is forever. He had 35 fantasy points against them on Feb. 24. He’s been over value in his last two games and his salary has dropped to where he needs 24.4 fantasy points to reach value on Thursday. He’s been a reliable play for the majority of the season and continues to get good looks in the Dallas offense, especially now that Dennis Smith Jr. and Wesley Matthews are out. ***

Derrick Favors, UTA at DAL ($5,100): Favors didn’t play on Tuesday, but is expected to rejoin the Utah starting lineup on Thursday. He had 29 fantasy points against the Kings on Saturday and 25 fantasy options against the Mavericks on Feb. 24. He needs 23.5 fantasy points to hit value in this one. Expect a solid game out of Favors as he’s clearly the key for Utah’s recent win streak. ***
