High Salary SF

LeBron James-Cleveland Cavaliers (9,600): James sat out Sunday’s game when the Cavs went to Washington and got roasted by the Wizards. After taking a much-criticized trip to Miami to practice with D-Wade, I expect a salty LeBron to take it to the Wizards in a revenge game tonight.  The Wizards have been among the worst teams in the NBA all season against opposing SF, and LeBron has contributed to those numbers by averaging 29 points, 11.5 rebounds, four assists, a block, and a steal in the two games he has played against them. Rolling with King James is a pricey proposition tonight, but he’s set up for a monster game against Washington on ESPN. 

Giannis Antetokoumpo-Milwauke Bucks (7,700): The Bucks have been getting great play from Antetokounmpo since the All Star break, and he’ll be in a great matchup to keep it going tonight against the Timberwolves.  “The Alphabet” has posted over 37 fantasy points in all but one of his seven games since the break and has two games in that span with over 60 fantasy points. He scored 22 points against the Pacers in his last game on Wednesday, but his non-scoring numbers were down a bit.  He’ll look to bounce back to his stat-stuffing self while continuing to score tonight against the T-Wolves who he struggled against in their previous meeting (11 points, nine rebounds, two assists, and two steals). ∗∗

Gordon Hayward-Utah Jazz (6,600): Hayward had 26 points in the Jazz loss to Toronto while adding six assists, three boards, and a block for a nice 41.75 fantasy points. Hayward has at least 37 fantasy points in four of his last six games, and he should be in a place to produce another good game against Memphis tonight. Memphis’s wing defense has been decent this season, but Tony Allen has been missing time lately which could allow Hayward a matchup he can take advantage of.
