Guards
Jrue Holiday, NOP vs. CHA ($35): Holiday has quietly had an All-Star-caliber season, as he's averaging 37 fantasy points per game. He's been even better recently, as he has at least 43 fantasy points in four of his last five games. That run extends all the way back to the DeMarcus Cousins injury, as he's averaging 40 fantasy points per game since. The final piece to the puzzle is the matchup, with Charlotte allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing point guards.
Kris Dunn, CHI vs. LAC ($24): Dunn has put himself into contention for Most Improved Player this season, and his 32.4 fantasy points per game represents a huge bump from his disappointing rookie season. On Tuesday, he gets a matchup against a weak Clippers frontcourt, which allows the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing point guards in their last 10 games.

Guard to Avoid
Trey Burke, NYK vs. DAL ($15): Burke looked like a potential breakout two weeks ago, but his role has dropped off significantly with the emergence of Emmanuel Mudiay and Frank Ntilikina. It's not like Mudiay or Ntilikina is running away with the job, but Burke has played 20 or fewer minutes in four of his last five games, while playing 14 minutes in back-to-back games. The fantasy production has plummeted accordingly, with Burke scoring less than 20 fantasy points in four of his last five

Forwards
Anthony Davis, NOP vs. CHA ($58): When Davis suits up, he should be in your lineup. He's averaging over 70 fantasy points per game since the All-Star break, more than 10 fantasy points per game more than the next-highest player. Davis has also scored at least 80 fantasy points four times in his last 11 games. Every player on Tuesday's slate hasn't even combined for four 80-fantasy-point games over the entire season.
Nemanja Bjelica, MIN at WSH ($20): Bjelica has been a stud when filling in for Jimmy Butler, as he's averaging nearly 30 fantasy points per game when starting. He's been even better recently, putting up 84 combined fantasy points in his last two games, while averaging nearly 42 minutes per game in his last three outings. That's one of the biggest roles in the NBA, and it's coming courtesy of a $20 player.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, BRK vs. TOR ($20): RHJ hasn't been the same player since he returned from injury, as this team has a gluttony of wing players clogging their rotation. What's really discouraging are his dud performances, as Hollis-Jefferson has 21 or fewer fantasy points in six of his last nine games. The role has been equally as discouraging, as he's played less than 25 minutes in all but one of those games.
Center
Myles Turner, IND at PHI ($24): Turner got off to a disappointing start this season, but his recent form is more indicative of the second-round pick many season-long owners invested into him early on. Turner has at least 35 fantasy points in four of his last five games while scoring at least 38 fantasy points in three straight games. That's incredible value for a $24 player, and the hope is that this sort of production could become a regular thing for someone of Turner's ability.
Jonas Valanciunas, TOR vs. BRK ($20): Valanciunas has been a different player in the second half, as he has at least 30 fantasy points in five straight games. That's all you can ask for from a $20 player, as he gets to face a Brooklyn defense Wednesday that allows the most fantasy points in the league to opposing centers. Valanciunas is averaging 33 fantasy points per game in his two matchups against the Nets this season.
Center to Avoid
Alex Len, PHX vs. CLE ($15): Len saw his price rise when Tyson Chandler was injured, but his role has diminished greatly since Chandler returned. Len has just 29 combined fantasy points in his last four games, and he's played just 32 total minutes in that span.
