DFS: Friday's Small Forward Value Rankings
Here are theScore's small forward value rankings for Friday, December 4:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| LeBron James (CLE) | at NO | 9 |
| Giannis Antetokounmpo (MIL) | at DET | 9 |
| Carmelo Anthony (NY) | at BKN | 8 |
| Marcus Morris (DET) | vs. MIL | 8 |
On a six-game slate, the options are very slim, so building your lineup around James and his plum matchup against New Orleans should bear fruit.
The Pistons are playing stellar basketball, and Morris is fresh off a 24-point night against his old team, the Phoenix Suns. He has a juicy matchup against the Bucks, and the majority of Morris's upside is in cash games.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Trevor Ariza (HOU) | at DAL | 6 |
| Joe Johnson (BKN) | at NY | 6 |
| T.J. Warren (PHX) | at WAS | 5 |
| Thabo Sefolosha (ATL) | vs. LAL | 5 |
| Otto Porter (WAS) | vs. PHX | 5 |
The Rockets are an offensive juggernaut with SG James Harden and PF/C Dwight Howard at the helm, and any other player on that team has limited upside due to a lack of scoring opportunities.
Sefolosha recorded 19 points for the first time this season, and has a solid matchup versus the Lakers.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Kent Bazemore (ATL) | vs. LAL | 4 |
| Marcus Thornton (HOU) | at DAL | 3 |
| P.J. Tucker (PHX) | at WAS | 3 |
| Stanley Johnson (DET) | vs. MIL | 2 |
| Alonzo Gee (NO) | vs. CLE | 1 |
Sefolosha has seized the Hawks' starting small forward job from Bazemore, limiting Bazemore's value.
