Top Four PFs

  1. Kristaps Porzingis (Knicks) – $7,000 vs. Celtics (24th)
  2. Julius Randle (Lakers) – $6,400 vs. Timberwolves (15th)
  3. Jabari Parker (Bucks) – $5,300 @ Trail Blazers (26th)
  4. Amir Johnson (Celtics) – $5,100 @ Knicks (27th)

Rationale:

  • Porzingis is scoring 43.8 FPPG in two meetings with the Celtics this season. He’s been a menace on the defensive end, averaging 2.0 steals and 2.5 blocks per game in the season series. He’s 3.7 FPPG better at home than on the road, so look for KP to get back on track.
  • Randle is scoring 36.4 FPPG in two games against the Wolves. He’s scoring 17.5 points and grabbing 11.5 rebounds in those two meetings. He’s been more effective in the rebounding department lately, averaging 11.3 rebounds per game in his last eight games.
  • Parker scored 24.5 fantasy points in his first game against Portland. He’s played well lately, scoring 27.1 FPPG over his last six contests. He’s scored in double figures in five of his last six games, which has accounts for his increase in fantasy value.
  • Johnson is averaging 24.4 FPPG in two meetings with the Knicks this season. He’s been inconsistent over his last five games, but he’s averaging 25.9 FPPG in that span. He’s not a major factor offensively, so his fantasy production correlates with his rebounding output each night.
