High Salary PF

Paul Millsap-Atlanta Hawks (8,600): Millsap has scored at least 18 points in eight straight games for the Hawks and is a reliable contributor of non-scoring numbers as well.  He has averaged 3.8 assists, 8.6 rebounds, and 2.2 steals over his last five games and added a massive six blocks against the Bulls on Saturday.  He has had good games against tonight’s opponent the Hornets this season as well averaging 17 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and two blocks.  Millsap has at least 40 fantasy points in five of his last eight contests and is coming off of 46.1 fantasy points on Saturday against the Bulls.  The Hornets allow the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing PF, so Millsap is a interesting pick with upside if he can continue his balanced multi-category production. ∗∗

Chris Bosh-Miami Heat (8,000): Aside from a weird down game in Phoenix, Bosh has been rolling along lately with at least 35 fantasy points in five of his last six games.  He had a double-double on Monday against the Warriors with 15 points and 12 rebounds.  He is a pretty safe play again tonight against the Clippers whether he plays PF along side Hassan Whiteside or slides to the center spot and takes on DeAndre Jordan.  Bosh’s rebounds tend to be higher when playing the five, but he has been scoring at a high enough level lately that either way he’s an option for your fantasy team. ∗∗∗

Krisptas Porzingis-New York Knicks (6,300): Porzingis dropped 26 points on the Celtics last night in just 27 minutes while adding six rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and two steals for a very solid 44.2 fantasy points. Tonight against the Nets, he may have to carry the offensive load if Carmelo Anthony is out, but either way he should find plenty of opportunities to produce against a Nets front court that was been struggling defensively. Porzingis has at least 32 fantasy points in four of his last five games with two 40-fantasy-point performances in his last three.∗∗∗∗∗
