High Value SF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Rudy Gay (at TOR – $6,000): Needs 25.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.4 fantasy points against Memphis. Gay was playing great going into the break and if by chance Aldridge misses this game, Gay should see more opportunities than he already does. He’s been a strong option all season and they’ll need him to step up against the Raptors. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Joe Ingles (at OKC – $5,500): Needs 23.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 15 fantasy points against Golden State. Even though Ingles limped into the break, there’s a reason to think he’ll bounce back in this one. The bigger reason is that he never seems to miss against the Thunder. Paul George brings out the best in him and he’ll deliver in this one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Jeff Green (at CHA – $5,000): Needs 21.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35.4 fantasy points against Toronto. I continue to love the Wizards from a DFS perspective because they have a lot of guys who can contribute strong numbers and most of them are at a very good salary. Green gets plenty of minutes and the matchup remains a good one as this should be an offensive showdown. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
