High Value PF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Larry Nance Jr (at WAS – $6,500): Needs 28.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.4 fantasy points against Boston. Even though Nance Jr wasn’t great against the Celtics, he’ll have a strong opportunity to bounce back against the Wizards. He still gets plenty of minutes and someone has to get it done for the Cleveland frontcourt. Even though the Wizards are bringing in frontcourt help, I’m uncertain if they’ll play or how they’ll play. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.

Jeff Green (vs CLE – $5,900): Needs 25.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 30.3 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Green continues to play outstanding for the Wizards and I would assume that he will remain in the starting lineup as, once again, I’m uncertain of the status of Portis and Parker at the time of this writing. He’s Jeff Green but this is the best Jeff Green we’ve seen in a while. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Kenrich Williams (vs MIN – $5,500): Needs 23.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 29.4 fantasy points against Chicago. Anthony Davis will be back in the lineup which could take away from Williams. That’s about the only issue in this game. But I’m going to trust that his minutes will be there. I think Cheick Diallo will be the one to suffer over Kenrich. But if you’re not as confident as me, you can look towards Trey Lyles. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a good ceiling.
