High Salary SF

LeBron James-Cleveland Cavaliers (9,900): James had a dud on Monday against the Pistons totaling just 29.1 fantasy points against the Pistons. He had been rolling before that, though, as he has thrived under new coach Tyronn Lue. James had at least 44 fantasy points in eight of his previous nine games before Monday’s downer with over 49 fantasy points in four straight. He should be able to bounce back tonight against the Hornets who have struggled to defend opposing wings this season including letting LeBron average 24 points, 9.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.0 blocks against them in his two previous games against them. Look for James to bounce back and be just fine tonight making him a solid option since his price is unusually under 10K.∗∗∗

Carmelo Anthony-New York Knicks (9,300): While his team has been the worst of the one represented by the top four SF tonight, Anthony has been the most consistent fantasy producer over the last few weeks. ‘Melo has posted over 40 fantasy points in each of his last four games and in seven of his last nine games. He has three double-doubles in his last four games and has been adding in solid assists numbers as well. He will have to deal with Paul George’s defense tonight as he takes on the Pacers, but given his recent run of production I like him to produce a good stat line again tonight. ∗∗∗

Chandler Parsons-Dallas Mavericks (6,700): Parsons only had 15 points on Sunday in a good matchup against Philadelphia in a disappointing game with just 24.8 fantasy points. Parsons has been up-and-down lately with two games in his last four with over 40 fantasy points and four games in his last six with under 30 fantasy points. Tonight, though, I like his matchup against the Thunder. When he faced OKC in late January, he had 26 points go to with five rebounds, three assists, and a steal. Parsons had run off three games of at least 24 points before cooling off against the Sixers, but I expect him to be aggressive and ready to roll for a big game for Dallas tonight.∗∗∗∗
