High Salary SF

Rudy Gay-Sacramento Kings (7,300): Gay had a big game last night against the Lakers finishing with 41.7 fantasy points on 16 points, six rebounds, three assists, two steals, and a surprising six blocks.  He has at least 40 fantasy points in three of his last five games now and at least 35 in five of his last seven.  He may be trying to play his way out of town if the trade rumors are true, but he he’s playing well and should be able to keep things going tonight as the Kings come home to take on the Hawks who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing SF over their last five games. 

Danilo Gallinari-Denver Nuggets (7,100): Gallo has been another regular option on my FanDuel daily picks since returning from his ankle injury and has been playing very well in his nine games this month.  In those nine games, he is averaging 35.6 minutes, 24.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.0 steals.  He had 29 points, eight boards, and three assists in the Nuggets previous game with against tonight’s opponent, Memphis.  He has only finished with less than 30 fantasy points in one of his last nine games and has posted 38 fantasy points or more in four of those last nine games including the 41.1 he hung on the Grizzlies.
