High Value PF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Domantas Sabonis (vs NY – $6,400): Needs 28.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 23.2 fantasy points against Philadelphia. Sabonis is back and even though he’s not playing many minutes, we know he has a high ceiling. You can always go with Thaddeus Young who is the more reliable option. But I like Sabonis’ ceiling more given the matchup. You can always bet against the Knicks. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Taj Gibson (at DEN – $5,500): Needs 24.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 45.1 fantasy points against New York. If Towns doesn’t end up playing, Gibson will get the minutes in the frontcourt. It’s a tough matchup and the Nuggets will be motivated following the Warriors game. But someone has to get numbers for the Timberwolves in their frontcourt and Gibson has proven himself in his career. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Noah Vonleh (at IND – $5,100): Needs 22.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 18.2 fantasy points against Minnesota. Vonleh should be at value if nothing else. He gets the minutes and even though he’s not playing well right now, he’s played very well against the Pacers this season, averaging 30.5 fantasy points in three games. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a good ceiling.
