High Value SF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Bojan Bogdanovic (vs CLE – $5,800): Needs 24.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46.9 fantasy points against LA Clippers. Bogdanovic always plays well against the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers are on a back-to-back and Bojan has played himself into a good rhythm with Oladipo out of the lineup. A blowout is possible but he’s been delivering even in limited minutes. And I like his game overall. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Nicolas Batum (at ATL – $5,600): Needs 23.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33.9 fantasy points against Dallas. Batum has turned himself into a fairly reliable option in recent weeks and this is a good matchup simply because the Hawks play an up-tempo style which lends itself to DFS numbers for the opposing team. He had 31.7 fantasy points against them on Nov. 28 if you’re looking for some extra confidence. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Taurean Prince (vs CHA – $5,100): Needs 21.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.7 fantasy points against Toronto. Prince has been a bit all over the place this season but I like his game right now and I like this matchup. Even though he hasn’t played well against the Hornets this season, this should be an offensive affair and he’s shooting very hot right now. His value being tied to his scoring is a slight issue. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.
