Gambling911.com has your daily fantasy NBA forecast for the coming days with a focus on specific players and how they might exploit certain teams, in this case the Boston Celtics, who are allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing power forwards this season. They also have struggled against opposing centers this season.
On the power forward front, the Celtics take on Memphis’ Zach Randolph (PF) $7.4K, Indiana’s David West (PF) $5.6K, Philadelphia’s Nerlens Noel (PF) $6.7K and Oklahoma City’s Serge Ibalka (PF) $7.6K.
In terms of centers, Memphis will throw at Boston one of the better centers in the league Marc Gasol (C) $7.6K while Orlando has Nikola Vucevic (C) $8.7K. The Thunder have the affordable Enes Kanter (C) $6K, who managed to tally up over 40 fantasy points his last game.
Zach Randolph (Memphis - PF) $7.4K – The Grizzlies power forward only needs around 30 fantasy points to make value and he managed over 40 the last time facing Boston. Randolph has shown he can take full advantage of weak teams, recently demolishing the Lakers with a breakout 24 baskets scored, 13 rebounds, 3 assists and a steal.
David West (Indiana - PF) $5.6K - At the current price, West flirted with hitting value the last time he faced Boston.
Serbe Ibalka (Oklahoma City - PF) $7.6K – Needing around 34 fantasy points, Ibalka did not even come close the last time he faced the Celtics. Perhaps that poor performance could be attributed to an “off” night as Ibalka was excellent his last outing against a good Toronto squad, scoring 21 baskets, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 5 crippling blocks.
That followed a 25 basket performance versus the Bulls with 9 rebounds, 3 assists along with 3 blocks and a steal to easily carry Ibalka into 45 plus fantasy territory, far exceeding value.
Marc Gasol (Memphis - C) $7.6K – Gasol was phenomenal against Boston the last time he faced them. He needs only 34 fantasy points to make value and managed to score nearly that many baskets. He also tacked on 8 rebounds, 2 assists and a block.
Enes Kanter (Oklahoma City - C) $6K – As noted previously, Kanter managed to tally up over 40 fantasy points his last game.
