High Value PF

Dewayne Dedmon, ATL vs ORL ($5,500): Dedmon has been over value in six of his last seven games. He’s coming off a 37.25 fantasy point performance against the Sixers on Friday and needs 24.9 fantasy points to each value on Sunday. He logs big minutes as part of the Hawks frontcourt rotation and is the most consistent player of the three. The matchup is good and he should give you at least value in this one. ***

Marquese Chriss, PHO at GS ($5,400): Chriss continues to deliver as a starter in Phoenix, going over value for a fifth straight game with 36.75 fantasy points against the Rockets on Friday. His salary has jumped to where he needs 24.5 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. Given the role he plays in the Phoenix at the moment, that should be no problem. The Warriors are on a back-to-back with little to play for and it’s possible that sit guys out to ensure health heading into the postseason. ****

Derrick Favors, UTA at MIN ($5,200): After missing value in two straight, Favors bounced back with 28 fantasy points against the Grizzlies on Friday. He’s done well against Minnesota this season, averaging 25.9 fantasy points in three games against them. He needs 23.6 fantasy points to reach value on Sunday. Expect the usual solid outing from Favors in this one. ***

ES: Lauri Markkanen, CHI vs WAS ($5,400)
