High Value PF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Jayson Tatum (vs OKC – $6,400): Needs 27.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.5 fantasy points against New York. Tatum’s value lessens with Kyrie in the lineup but the minutes and opportunities are still there for him. He’s a fairly reliable scorer for the Celtics and he’ll chip in in other categories. He had 33.7 fantasy points against the Thunder earlier in the season and a big 47.2 fantasy point effort against them late last season. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Jerami Grant (at BOS – $6,000): Needs 25.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 19.9 fantasy points against Miami. Not a good game for Grant against the Heat but his minutes were down in the blowout. He figures to play big minutes in this one and I expect a bounce back performance given how good he’s been throughout the season. If nothing else, he should get you value just due to his minutes and ability to do a bit of everything. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Marcus Morris (vs OKC – $5,800): Needs 25 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.5 fantasy points against New York. Morris has been playing well and he’s a guy who never seems to miss against the Thunder. I love his game right now and I love this matchup for him. He had 32.5 fantasy points against the Thunder on Oct. 25. He’s one of those guys who kills OKC and those guys never take a night off. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
