BOSTON, MA – MARCH 31: Serge Ibaka /

High Value PF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Serge Ibaka (vs ORL – $6,200): Needs 29.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 44.5 fantasy points against Chicago. Ibaka is back in the starting lineup but who knows if that’s going to continue. He typically plays well against his former team and the matchup is good as long as the minutes are there. But it’s possible that he’s coming off the bench and won’t be able to get the minutes he needs to get the value he needs. Proceed with caution but the ceiling is high. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Jae Crowder (vs CHA – $5,000): Needs 22.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 32.75 fantasy points against Washington. With Derrick Favors out of the lineup, Crowder should continue to get strong minutes for the Jazz. And he gets to go up against the Hornets, who are on a back-to-back and just look gassed on this road trip. I love his overall game and he’s at a great salary given the minutes and opportunities he should get. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Moe Harkless (at MIN – $4,900): Needs 22.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34 fantasy points against Detroit. Harkless has been playing well as of late, stepping up with McCollum and Nurkic out of the lineup. And now he gets to go up against the Timberwolves, which should be an easy matchup. He can do a bit of everything and they need his defense to be there with Nurkic gone. He’s in a similar position to Crowder. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
