High Salary SF

Carmelo Anthony-New York Knicks (9,000): Anthony and the Knicks will have the tough task of taking on the Warriors tonight, but Golden State looked fallible last night almost losing to the 76ers.  Melo looked great on Friday in his return from a couple games off with a knee injury.  Anthony finished with 19 points, ten rebounds, eight assists, and four steals for a total of 49 fantasy points. He has at least 31 fantasy points in each of his last four games not cut short by injury, and he should be able to put together a good line tonight as long as the game doesn’t turn into a blowout early. 

Chandler Parsons-Dallas Mavericks (6,700): Parsons has become a regular fixture in my FanDuel daily picks lately and he continues to produce big numbers for Dallas on a regular basis.  Parsons has at least 32 of in each of his last six games including a 45.7-fantasy-point performance against the Rockets and 43.6 fantasy points against the T-Wolves.  Tonight, he’ll be in a great matchup against the Suns who allow the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing SF and gave up 17 points to Parsons even though their earlier meeting came when Parsons was at much less than full strength.
