High Value PF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Paul Millsap (at OKC – $6,200): Needs 29.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 15.5 fantasy points against Houston. It wasn’t a good night for the Nuggets against the Rockets but they always seem to have a good night against the Thunder. And if Paul George is out of the lineup for OKC, they should make things easier on the Nuggets offense. He had 32 fantasy points against the Thunder on Feb. 26 and is averaging 38.8 fantasy points in his last four games against them. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Jerami Grant (vs DEN – $5,200): Needs 24 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.75 fantasy points against Indiana. The minutes and opportunities are always there for Grant and with Paul George likely being out for this game, Grant will see even more minutes. It will also put more pressure on him but, aside from the Memphis game, he’s been playing well as of late, going over 30 fantasy points in three of his last five games. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Zach Collins (at ATL – $4,400): Needs 20.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 24.75 fantasy points against Chicago. Collins should continue to see good minutes with Nurkic out of the lineup and now he gets a great matchup against the Hawks. Given his salary and the minutes he should get, this should be an easy night for Collins to give you at least value. I love him as a salary saver on Friday. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
