High Value SF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Brandon Ingram (at IND – $5,900): Needs 26.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31 fantasy points against Golden State. I have no clue about Ingram’s game right now but if LeBron is out, you can take Ingram with confidence. Especially if Kuzma is out as well. The Pacers are still in a bit of disarray with Oladipo out and they are on a back-to-back. If LeBron plays, stay away. But if LeBron sits, he’ll get you value if nothing else. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Marcus Morris (at CLE – $5,400): Needs 24.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.75 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Morris continues to play well for the Celtics and his opportunities are only going to go up with Kyrie in the lineup. And it’s the Cavaliers. I’m loving Morris’ game right now and he will deliver once again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Jonathan Isaac (at OKC – $5,300): Needs 23.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39 fantasy points against Brooklyn. Isaac has been over 29 fantasy points in his last three games. And he had 29 fantasy points in the game against the Thunder on Jan. 29. I love his game right now and he remains at a good salary given his minutes and production. It’s a tough matchup but he’s the kind of guy who will hurt the Thunder with his length and talent. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
