NBA VALUE PLAYS 11/3

I feel like everyone gets together and tells each other in the industry their “Value Plays” for that night and the same 5 people give you the same 3 or 4 players.  Well, I will skip Morris, and Cauley-Stein and Hibbert, I will try to give you some SNEAKIER plays that hopefully the others might miss.

 

My top Value Play tonight is going to be Evan Fournier.  He is really cheap, and the beauty is he has averaged 35 MPG the past 3 games.  He will face a BEAT UP Pelicans squad and should see 30 minutes of action tonight.  Anytime you can find a player who is more than half the price of the big $$ guys, who plays 30 minutes, It’s a value.  Fournier has also averaged 30 fantasy points the last two games, if  you want to put Drummond and The Brow in your lineup tonight (you should), put Fournier in your Guard spot of flex.  If he can get you close to 30 points at his current price, you are golden. 

I also like Matt Barnes tonight. Memphis got SMOKED last night, and they traveled today to play against a Kings team that sucks on defense.  Barnes is pretty hit or miss, and he will never get you 40 points, but if he can see 22 minutes of action tonight, and get you 20-25 fantasy points, he is an extreme value.

Jameer Nelson will be on the floor for 23-27 minutes against a Lakers squad who has been terrible against opposing PG’s for the past 3 years.  Nelson is a veteran who can get steals, points, assists and even rebounds.  PG isn’t wonderful tonight anyway, save at PG and spend like crazy on your bigs tonight.  I think Nelson nets 30 fantasy points tonight.
