High Value PF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Jayson Tatum (vs ORL – $6,100): Needs 27.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.75 fantasy points against Indiana. Tatum has been playing very well as of late, going over 32 fantasy points in his last three games. You can also spend an extra $100 in this spot and go with Draymond, who will definitely deliver given the team he plays for. But Tatum has the higher ceiling and a good matchup against the Magic. He and Hayward have found a nice rhythm together. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Mario Hezonja (vs WAS – $5,600): Needs 25.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 57 fantasy points against Houston. Super Mario is now the best player in the league and we should all accept it and be happy about it. He’s been over 50 fantasy points in his last two games. And now he gets a great matchup against the Wizards. The Knicks are weird and the final week of the season is weirder. But trust Super Mario. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Dragan Bender (at HOU – $5,000): Needs 23.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 47.5 fantasy points against New Orleans. Bender has been playing well as of late for the Suns and with Ayton out of the lineup, he’ll continue to get the minutes and opportunities. The Rockets tend to give up DFS so the matchup is good for Bender and he’s at a great salary given his recent production and his minutes right now. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
