DFS: Tuesday's Power Forward Value Rankings
Here are theScore's power forward value rankings for Tuesday, November 24:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Paul MIllsap (ATL) | vs. BOS | 9 |
| Julius Randle (LAL) | at GS | 8 |
| Blake Griffin (LAC) | at DEN | 8 |
| Nikola Mirotic (CHI) | at POR | 7 |
| Zach Randolph (MEM) | vs. DAL | 7 |
Griffin is the highest-priced player at PF on most DFS sites, and is worth the price tag as he battles a Nuggets team giving up the fifth most fast-break points in the NBA.
The Warriors are superb at defending long-range shots, but when it comes to defending the paint, Golden State surrenders the third-most points among NBA teams (44.7) - providing a high-ceiling for Randle.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Draymond Green (GS) | vs. LAL | 7 |
| Kenneth Faried (DEN) | vs. LAC | 6 |
| Jordan Hill (IND) | at WAS | 6 |
| Dirk Nowitzki (DAL) | at MEM | 5 |
| Amir Johnson (BOS) | at ATL | 5 |
| Nene Hilario (WAS) | vs. IND | 4 |
Green is worth a start on Tuesday - and could become a handful for the Lakers frontcourt while grabbing a pile of rebounds to go with double figures in points. Meanwhile, Nowitzki battles one of the best interior defenses in the NBA and could be looked at as a fade candidate.
Hilario has been more consistent than teammate Humphries as of late, giving him the edge against Indiana - but DFSers shouldn't expect a big return.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| J.J. Hickson (DEN) | vs. LAC | 3 |
| Ed Davis (POR) | vs. CHI | 3 |
| Dwight Powell (DAL) | at MEM | 2 |
| JaMychal Green (MEM) | vs. DAL | 1 |
Hickson and Davis play significant roles on their respective teams, but neither has enough DFS value to be rostered.
Powell and Green are back-up PFs for their respective teams and can record a double-double in any game - but their ceilings are extremely low.
