Wesley Matthews ($5,700) makes for an attractive and affordable play Thursday against the Lakers.

Kyle Lowry's playing time is incredibly consistent, and a matchup against the Suns on Thursday makes him a very attractive fantasy option.

Serge Ibaka may have a tough matchup Monday against the Grizzlies, but Ben Zweiman explains why the Magic big man should still get some fantasy consideration.
