Thursday's Center Value Rankings
Here are theScore's center value rankings for Thursday, February 25:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opposition | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Brook Lopez (BKN) | at PHX | 8 |
| Dwight Howard (HOU) | at POR | 8 |
Lopez is coming off a monster 36 point, 10 rebound performance against Portland and gets a weak defense in Phoenix.
Howard will face those same Trail Blazers that were just abused by Lopez. Howard also has three double doubles in his last five.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opposition | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Nikola Vucevic (ORL) | vs. GS | 7 |
| Greg Monroe (MIL) | at BOS | 7 |
| Mason Plumlee (POR) | vs. HOU | 7 |
| Andrew Bogut (GS) | at ORL | 7 |
| Rudy Gobert (UTA) | vs. SA | 6 |
| Alex Len (PHX) | vs. BKN | 6 |
| Enes Kanter (OKC) | at NO | 6 |
| Jared Sullinger (BOS) | vs. MIL | 6 |
Monroe has fluctuated between returning immense value and none at all in the last ten games. He is best reserved for tournaments right now.
Plumlee or Bogut look to be bargain plays that can return value with ease but do not have top upside.
Len is questionable Thursday after re-spraining his ankle in practice.
Kanter is worth a tournament play in what should be a high scoring game.
| Name | Opposition | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Tim Duncan (SA) | at UTA | 5 |
| Steven Adams (OKC) | at NO | 5 |
Duncan has been volatile of late while Adams may give way to Kanter in that offensive game.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opposition | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Tyson Chandler (PHX) | vs. BKN | 4 |
| Tyler Zeller (BOS) | vs. MIL | 4 |
| Meyers Leonard (POR) | vs. HOU | 3 |
