High Value SF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Will Barton (at GS – $5,800): Needs 24.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37.3 fantasy points against LA Lakers. Barton has looked more like himself more often than not recently but Gary Harris also had it going last game and maybe he’s rediscovered his form if you want to save money. I’m a fan of anyone against the Warriors defense right now. It’s just been bad and Barton plays in a high powered offense with plenty of minutes. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Jabari Parker (at CHA – $5,700): Needs 24.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 32.3 fantasy points against Dallas. Parker has been over 32 fantasy points in three of his last four games and now he has a good matchup against the Hornets. He had just 9.6 fantasy points against them on Feb. 22, which is my only real concern in this one. But I’m going to trust him to bounce back given his recent stretch and the usual minutes and opportunities he gets. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Jae Crowder (at MEM – $5,300): Needs 22.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 27.2 fantasy points against New Orleans. Crowder continues to be a reliable option for the Jazz and he plays big minutes and can do a bit of everything. You need these guys against the Grizzlies, who can still muck things up more than given great for. Crowder is at a good salary given his usual minutes. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
