High Salary PF

DeMarcus Cousins-Sacramento Kings (11,200): Cousins continues to produce at ridiculous levels and had another 60 fantasy points on Friday with a triple-double of 24 points, ten rebounds, and ten assists.  He has at least 58 fantasy points in seven of his last eight healthy games and has been very good in both games since he missed a contest with a ankle injury. He played 40 minutes in Brooklyn, so the injury is clearly behind him and Cousins should be ready to put on a show in Boston today as he takes on one of the teams that was rumored to be pursuing him in a trade this offseason.  Cousins costs a ton, but he has been extremely reliable lately, and its hard to fade him when he keeps going for almost 60 fantasy points every game. ∗∗∗

Chris Bosh-Miami Heat (7,100): Bosh has been a little inconsistent lately, but if you go with an expensive PF and pass on Boogie, I’d go with Bosh.  In his last ten games, Bosh has scored at least 18 points nine times and has been doing solid but not outstanding work on the boards.  Bosh is a reliable producer of 25 fantasy points per night, but if you’re spending this much  you’re wanting more than that.  He did have 30.5 fantasy points on Friday against Charlotte giving him at least 30 fantasy points in six of his last eight games. Bosh isn’t at high-risk to put up a total dud, but he may not quite reach full value either. ∗∗∗

Kristaps Porzingis-New York Knicks (7,000): Porzingis is in a great matchup against the Nuggets tonight who allow the second-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PF. Porzingis has had an excellent first half of the season and he’s coming off his best game in a while.  He finished with 17 points, ten rebounds, and six blocks against Memphis on Friday for a very nice 43 fantasy points. Porzingis is a little risky since he had under 20 fantasy points in his two games before that breakout, but he should be a good play tonight as long as he gets over 30 minutes of playing time. If Melo isn’t able to go, Porzingis becomes a much better play since he’ll carry the offense. No Melo-∗∗∗∗ With Melo-∗∗
