High Value SF

Players costing $6,667 or under

Mikal Bridges (vs NO – $5,800): Needs 23.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 18.1 fantasy points against Utah. With Booker out of the lineup, guys will have to step up. And Bridges is definitely a guy who can step up for the Suns. The minutes are there for him and he has shown a high ceiling. On top of that, it’s a great matchup as the Pelicans have just as little going on as the Suns. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Maurice Harkless (at DEN – $5,300): Needs 21.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33.1 fantasy points against Memphis. Harkless continues to step up with all the injuries to the Blazers. The Nuggets can be a tough matchup but a tough matchup just means a guy like Harkless will have to step up even more. I love his game right now and he’s shown a high ceiling. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Evan Turner (at DEN – $4,800): Needs 19.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.9 fantasy points against Memphis. And if you don’t want to spend on Harkless, you can always take Turner. He’s been over 40 fantasy points in his last two games. I know, it’s Evan Turner and the minutes aren’t exactly guaranteed and he’s Evan Turner. But he’s playing well and the Nuggets are sort of falling off. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.
