High Value SF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Thaddeus Young (vs LAC – $6,100): Needs 27.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 42.25 fantasy points against LA Lakers. Young had a big outing against the Lakers in limited minutes and like Bogdanovic, has played himself back into a rhythm with Oladipo out of the lineup. I love his game right now and with the Clippers missing some frontcourt contributors, Young should be in for a big night. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Marcus Morris (vs LAL – $5,500): Needs 24.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.75 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Remember everything I said about Marcus Smart wanting to rub salt into the Lakers wound? That also applies to Marcus Morris. And he has it easier because the Lakers frontcourt is brutal. Morris should have an easy night at the office on Thursday. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Terrence Ross (vs MIN – $5,100): Needs 23.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 42.25 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Ross continues to shoot hot against everyone except the Nets. And the Timberwolves are not the Nets, so that’s a good sign for his value coming into this game. I’m not entirely sure he’ll be on the team but if he is, he should keep up his hot shooting. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
