High Value C

Greg Monroe, BOS vs. ATL ($5,900): Al Horford playing limited minutes means more minutes for Monroe. He had 53.2 fantasy points against the Bulls on Friday and needs 25.8 fantasy points to reach value on Sunday. Assuming he plays 20-plus minutes, he’ll be over 25 fantasy points without a problem. ****

Dewayne Dedmon, ATL at BOS ($5,800): Dedmon has been over 35 fantasy points in three of his last four. He needs 25.4 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. He’s logging about 30 minutes a game and has been a strong option alongside John Collins. As long as he plays his usual minutes, he’ll be over 25 fantasy points with a good chance he’s over 30 fantasy points. ***

Jonas Valanciunas, TOR vs ORL ($5,800): The Magic are 27th against the position in their last 15 games. The matchup is very good, but Valanciunas has missed value in four straight and probably won’t see enough playing time it reach value on Sunday. He’ll get points and rebounds for as long as he plays, but is a risky play against the Magic. **

Bismack Biyombo, ORL at TOR ($4,000): If Nikola Vucevic doesn’t play, Biyombo should draw another start. He’s been over value in his last two games as the starter and needs 17.5 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. If Vucevic plays, Biyombo likely won’t see enough playing time to make an impact. But if he starts, he’s a good bet. *
