High Salary PF

Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (8,400): With Chris Bosh out, the Heat are thin up front which should allow space for Draymond to have a good game if he is aggressive trying to score. Green only had six points on Monday as Curry and Klay did most of the work on the offensive end.  Green did still have 38.3 fantasy points on 14 boards, nine assists, two steals, and a block showing he can produce nice fantasy lines even without scoring a ton of points.  He hasn’t had 45 fantasy points or more in any of his last six games, but the potential is always there for him to go off if the Warriors need him to. He’s a little pricey to be a “safe” option, but he definitely has upside in Miami tonight. ∗∗

Kevin Love-Cleveland Cavaliers (7,500): Love has at least 34 fantasy points in all three of his games since the break and was producing at a similar level before getting injured and playing limited minutes.  He hd 12 points and 12 boards against the Hornets for 34.9 fantasy points when the teams met at the beginning of the month, and he’ll look to produce a similar or better line against Charlotte again tonight.  Love had a huge 48.2 fantasy points against the Thunder on Sunday, and he should deliver value again tonight if tonight’s game is competitive throughout.  ∗∗∗∗

LaMarcus Aldridge-San Antonio Spurs (7,200): Another PF in a good place tonight in the 7K range is LaMarcus Aldridge who leads the Spurs into Sacramento.  The Kings have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing PF this season and the most in the NBA over their last five-game span. Aldridge had 16 points and nine boards against them in their first meeting of the year while only playing 26 minutes. He will probably have to carry more of the offense with Kawhi still injured (questionable) and is coming off a nice double-double against the Suns on Sunday when he posted 35.5 fantasy points giving him at least 35 in eight of his last nine games. Aldridge is a good play if Kawhi returns, but he is a great play if he’s the focus of the Spurs’ offense tonight in Sacramento. No Kawhi-∗∗∗∗∗, with Kawhi-∗∗∗∗

Zach Randolph-Memphis Grizzlies (6,400): Randolph hasn’t quite exploded like some people expected while taking over for Marc Gasol who is out for the season.  In his two games since the All Star break, Randolph has been solid but not spectacular with 26.1 and 27.2 fantasy points. Before the break, he was rolling with at least 34 fantasy points in four of his last five games, and he should be in a place to get back to that level tonight against the Lakers who struggle defensively both on the perimeter and on the interior.  Z-Bo has the potential to go off, but he hasn’t been on a crazy-productive run like some expected. ∗∗∗∗

Gorgui Dieng-Minnesota Timberwolves (6,400): Dieng has been outstanding for the T-Wolves while filling in for Kevin Garnett and Nikola Pekovic. He has at least 33 fantasy points in four of his last five although the one clunker was a brutal 9.1 fantasy point game against the Knicks.  He  had 14 points, ten board,s and six assists when the Wolves played the Raptors just before the break on his way to 39 fantasy points, and he will look to produce a similar line in Toronto tonight.  Dieng has eight double-doubles in his last ten games and is a very solid and safe play as long as he gets his usual playing time tonight. ∗∗∗
