It’s important tonight to find players who will be playing meaningful minutes and in the fourth quarter.
Elfrid Payton- Elfrid Payton is having himself as nice rookie campaign. No reason not to add to it tonight against the New York Knicks, who have allowed the most fantasy points to point guards over the last five games.
Goran Dragic- The Miami Heat have a crucial game tonight ,they need this win to stay alive. So I expect Dragic to play big minutes, plus he has a nice matchup against the Toronto Raptors, who allow point guards to average 40 fantasy points a game.
Dwyane Wade- See Goran Dragic and also the Toronto Raptors allow 35 fantasy points a game to shooting guards.
DeMar DeRozan- DeMar DeRozan is rolling, I think he is a pretty safe choice. This should be a competitive game and the Miami Heat are allowing 36 fantasy points a game to shooting guards in the last five games.
Tobias Harris- Tobias Harris is a New York native, so he always comes to play in when he is playing the Nets or Knicks. The New York Knicks are also allowing 36 fantasy points a game to small forwards over their last ten games.
Jeff Green- Jeff Green is facing the Los Angeles Clippers, who have allowed small forwards to score 38 fantasy points a game in their last five games.
Zach Randolph- I hardly play Zach Randolph, but I feel like he will have a nice game against the Los Angeles Clippers, who also allow the third most fantasy points to power forwards in the league.
Andrea Bargnani- I like Andrea Bargnani if he plays, he is always a risk, but it is a nice matchup tonight. The Orlando Magic are allowing power forwards to average 40 fantasy points a game.
Nikola Vucevic- Nikola Vucevic is averaging 39 fantasy points a game over his last five and the New York Knicks are allowing center to average 46 fantasy points a game. Lets just say things look favorable .
