High Value PF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Paul Millsap (at MIL – $5,900): Needs 24.1 fantasy points. Millsap has been up-and-down in his last four games. He’s been inconsistent all season, which is a major concern. But he did had 49.6 fantasy points against the Bucks on Nov. 11. With Milwaukee’s lack of size, Millsap has the ability to put up big scoring and rebounding numbers. Diagnosis: The matchup is proven, but he’s a wildly inconsistent player.

Jerami Grant (at SAC – $5,400): Needs 22 fantasy points. Grant has played well as a starter and has another good matchup on Monday. He can do a bit of everything and helps his value with his defensive ability. If Westbrook is back, I like his value even more because his points should be up as he has a chemistry with Westbrook. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling and a very good matchup.

Trey Lyles (at MIL – $4,400): Needs 17.9 fantasy points. Lyles has been up-and-down in recent contests. He was down to 11.3 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Nov. 17. But much like Millsap, this is a matchup he just plays well against. He’s averaging 24.4 fantasy points in his last three games against the Bucks. As a low-cost option, he’s a solid bet. Diagnosis: Everything said about Millsap applies to Lyles. Just at a lower price and ceiling.
