High Value C
Kyle O’Quinn, NY vs DET ($4,400): O’Quinn is expected to play on Saturday. Meanwhile, Enes Kanter is currently listed as doubtful. If Kanter doesn’t play, there’s a good chance that O’Quinn picks up the spot start. Even if he comes off the bench, his minutes should be up with Kanter not suiting up. He needs 20 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. Circumstances say he’ll be over that number and he has shown the ability to be over 30 fantasy points. ***
Willie Cauley-Stein, SAC vs GS ($5,900): Cauley-Stein has been over 30 fantasy points in his last two games and is coming off a 35.75 fantasy point performance against the Pacers on Thursday. He needs 28 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. He’s done well against the Warriors this season, averaging 32.8 fantasy points in three games against them. He should be around 30 fantasy points in this one. ***
Greg Monroe, BOS vs TOR ($5,600): After failing to crack 20 fantasy points in two straight games, Monroe bounced back with 31.5 fantasy points against the Jazz on Wednesday. He hasn’t played the Raptors as a member of the Celtics this season, but was over 30 fantasy points in two games against Toronto as a member of the Suns. He needs 25.4 fantasy points to each value on Saturday. If Al Horford and Marcus Morris can’t go, that will boost Monroe’s value. ***
