High Value C

Jonas Valanciunas, TOR vs IND ($6,000): Valanciunas struggled against the Celtics on Wednesday, playing just 14 minutes and posting nine fantasy points. His salary has dropped to where he needs 26.3 fantasy points to hit value on Friday. He had 51.6 fantasy points against the Pacers on Mar. 15. Expect a bounce back performance from Valanciunas in this one. ***

Greg Monroe, BOS vs CHI ($5,300): The Bulls are 29th against the position in their last 15 games. Monroe has been over value in three of his last four and is coming off a 29.1 fantasy point effort against the Raptors on Wednesday. As long as he plays 20-plus minutes, he’ll get you the 23.2 fantasy points he needs for value. Given the matchup, he should get the playing time needed. ***

Alex Len, PHO vs NO ($4,800): Len returned to the lineup on Wednesday after missing a handful of games. He played 32 minutes, finishing with 34.5 fantasy points. He’s been very good late in the season and as long as he’s going to play 25-plus minutes, he’ll contribute plenty of points and rebounds. He’s a solid low cost option who should get you the 21 fantasy points he needs to reach value. ***
