Worth the Investment
Ty Lawson (DEN, PG) - $9000
With only two games on Tuesday, Lawson is by far the safest investment of any point guard. After a rough start to the year with injuries and inconsistent contributions, he has provided steady production virtually every time out.
Lawson's fantasy production does not typically get influenced by minute reductions, which have affected the play of some of the other point-guard options for Tuesday night. Denver has placed many of their players on the trading block, but will continue to rely on Lawson regardless.
Honorable Mention: Tony Parker (SA, PG)
Chris Bosh (MIA, PF) - $8600
This should be a relatively easy pick. With the exception of a terrible game (eight points, 4-17 FG) against the Lakers exactly one week ago, Bosh has been on an absolute tear as of late.
On a day where only four teams are playing, Bosh is almost impossible to pass up at the power forward position. In his last six games, Bosh has averaged 24 points and 6.5 rebounds per game.
Also note that Dwyane Wade is listed as probable for Tuesday’s game. If Wade is indeed held out or placed on a minutes restriction, the Heat will need Bosh to force more field goal attempts, no matter how stifling the Oklahoma City defense may be.
Honorable Mention: Serge Ibaka (OKC, PF)
Tiago Splitter (SA, C) - $4400
Splitter was inserted back into the starting lineup on Sunday and immediately went on to put up 14 points, four rebounds, three assists and a steal. As he becomes more adjusted to his role, the blocks should come along as well.
What is most surprising about Splitter's last game is that he was able take 12 field-goal attempts. This is telling of a possible increased role in the offense for the veteran center, who is a good value pick at the center position.
Top Sleeper
Hassan Whiteside (MIA, C) - $5500
Despite his struggles against Sacramento on January 16, Whiteside was still able to block two shots. Hopefully that game was just a hiccup in his breakout season.
Prior to that game, Whiteside had averaged 13.8 points, 10.2 rebounds and 3.5 blocks since January 1, and has pretty much replaced Chris Andersen as the primary center for the Miami Heat. Look no further for your wild-card pick.
Honorable Mentions: J.J. Hickson (DEN, PF), Jameer Nelson (DEN, PG)
