Big Cap Players ($8,000 and Up)
-
Mid Cap Players ($5,000 to $8,000)
Ricky Rubio vs LAL ($7,700) - Rubio has posted at least 32 fantasy points in 17 of his last 22 games, making his floor pretty high against a bad Lakers defense . Over their last five games, the Lakers are allowing point guards to average almost 60 fantasy points a night. Then throw in the fact that Rubio posted 51 fantasy against the Lakers last week.
C.J. McCollum vs HOU ($7,200) - I think Houston will throw Patrick Beverley on Dame Lillard, which should lead to more shots and touches for McCollum. And with this matchup we know there will be plenty of points scored. Plus, McCollum is coming off a 50 fantasy point game.
Brook Lopez vs DET ($7,100) - Brook is coming off a 48 fantasy point game and has been solid for the last few weeks. He has posted at least 31 fantasy points in nine of his last 11 games. He also had a nice game against Detroit last week (without Jeremy Lin), posting 37 fantasy points and hitting a buzzer-beater for the win. I don’t think Lopez will explode, but he pretty safe bet to hit around value.
Trevor Ariza vs POR ($5,600) - It looks like Ariza is starting to cook as he has posted over 34 fantasy point in his last two games. A matchup between the Rockets and Blazers, means a lot of points, so the opportunities will be there.
Small Cap Players ($5,000 and Down)
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson vs DET ($4,900) - RHJ has posted over 31 fantasy points in four straight games and looks to be improving as a rebounder. I know he struggled in his last matchup with Detroit, but some of that had to do with the absence of Jeremy Lin, who will be playing tonight.
