PG
Chris Paul (LAC) $9300 - Ok I know he is going against Curry, but he is averaging 64 fantasy points in the 2 meeting's with GS this season against Curry. I see no reason why he can't produce in the same fashion tonight.
Damian Lillard (POR) $7300 - Lillard has been in a little bit of a slump with Aldridge coming back. He get's a matchup tonight against the spurs, where Lillard has had some great games averaging 26.8 points a game againt them.
Isaiah Thomas
Tony Parker
SG
DeMar Derozan (TOR) $8200 - DeRozan gets to play tonight at home, where his numbers are a little better.He has got to the line at least 10 times in the last 3 games. The Piston's are the weakest on the wing and don't have the athletic ability to keep up with DeRozan wether it be Smith or Singler.
Gordon Hayward (UTA) $6800 - Hayward has been incredibly consistent ,scoring no less than 26.3 fantasy points in his last 8 games. Fanduel refuses to raise his price regardless of what or who he's playing.Dallas plays an up-tempo game,so this could mean some extra touches for Utah. Hayward could be in for a big game.
James Anderson
Gerald Green
SF
Rudy Gay (SAC) $7700 - Gay is always a good look when put in a fast paced high scoring game. thta comes tonight in the shape of the 76er's. The 76er's are ranked last for fantasy points allowed to SF's.
Luol Deng (CLE) $5900 - Deng has been getting decent minutes and scored over 25 fantasy points his last two games. Tonight P.J. Tucker will be suspended for his scuffle with griffin,so Deng should have his run of the place. With the up-tempo pace the suns play, as long as it stays close, Deng should exceed value.
Thaddeus Young
Maurice Harkless
PF
Carmelo Anthony (NY) $10,300 - Tonight could be a big night for Melo. Chandler and Amar'e are out for tonight's game, NY is gonna need a big game from Melo tonight, not just in points but in rebounds as well.
Andray Blatche (BRK) $4900 - Blatche is a bench player,but Garnett has already been ruled out for tonight's game, so Blatche should see 25-28 minutes. He faces a Miami team that ranks 28th in rebounding, as long as Brooklyn doesnt play small, Blatche could reach value. Blatche is a high risk high reward play for tonight.
Kenneth Faried
Zach Randolph
C
Demarcus Cousins (SAC) $9500 - No explanation needed. He get's the awful 76er's. Cousin's got 58.5 fantasy points in 28 minutes last time they played Philly, if he can see 35 minutes the sky is the minute.
Nikola Vucevic (ORL) $7500 - Vucevic gets to go against the Nuggets tonight, who have been awful against opposing big men. At a $7500 price tag, he should easily exceed value with around 30 to 40 fantasy points.
Marcin Gortat
Spencer Hawes
Value Plays
Ben McLemore SG (SAC) $3600 - Mclemore didn't have a great showing last night, but will have a great shoot to easily make value tonight against a struggling 76er's team.As long as it stays close Ben should be up for a fair amount of minutes.
Kyle Singler SF (DET) $4500 - Singler has been getting plenty of minutes and last night he had 34.9 in 40 minutes of play. He has a tough defensive match up tonight against Toronto, but he is getting plenty of minute's and at $4500 he should get value tonight.
Kyle O'Quinn C (ORL) $4700 - O'Quinn has been putting up nearly a point a minute lately, but being trapped behind Vucevic he has had trouble finding minutes. The rumors floating around are that he could get the start over Tobias Harris. Even without the start expect Kyle to get around 20 fantasy points in 15 or so minutes. Keep check on the starting lineup, if he gets the start and only a few extra minutes could make a big difference in his value.
Jerryd Bayless PG (BOS) $5000 - Rondo is still unable to play the second night of back to backs and with Bradley sidelined that leaves Bayless to be the playmaker at the guard position.He had a bad outing last night, but the Knicks perimeter defense is not the best and count in he will see 35-40 minutes he is worth a look.
Jeremy Tyler C (NY) $3500 - Tyson Chandler and Amar'e are both out for tonight's match, that leaves room for Tyler. Cole Aldrich will get the start for Chandler, but Tyler has been playing more minutes than Aldrich and much more productive. Tyler has a great chance to reach value if he can see 20-30 minutes. This is a risk play as he is not starting, but looking at time played i expect Tyler to see more of the minutes.
