High Value PF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Jerami Grant (at ORL – $6,100): Needs 26.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39.4 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Grant continues to play well for the Thunder and I love this game for him. The Magic have a lot of length and Grant thrives in these lengthy battles because he also has a lot of length. What a way to sell a game, I know. Grant should get his usual numbers and don’t be surprised if his blocks are up again. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Richaun Holmes (at SA – $5,000): Needs 21.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 40.5 fantasy points against LA Lakers. Holmes was back in the lineup and delivered in a big way. And with Ayton still out of the lineup, Holmes will once again have a big opportunity to post a big game. The Spurs are a tough matchup but someone has to put up numbers in the Suns frontcourt. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Jeff Green (at CLE – $4,800): Needs 20.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 19.7 fantasy points against San Antonio. This just feels like a Jeff Green game because it’s the Cavaliers. It’s not a revenge game but Green has been playing well and he does a bit of everything. And the Cavaliers are still a bad basketball team. Green is at a nice salary and should get you value if nothing else in this one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
