High Salary C

DeMarcus Cousins-Sacramento Kings (11,100): Cousins salary is still crazy-high at over 11K. He is a nightly threat to absolutely own the night, though, so you have to at least give him a look at center.  He had 51.5 fantasy points on Friday against Detroit with 31 points and ten rebounds.  He has at last 50 fantasy points in three of his last six games including a game with 70.2 fantasy points against the Pelicans.  Cousins takes on Robin Lopez and the Knicks tonight who he had 27 points and 11 rebounds against in their earlier meeting this season.  Cousins has unlimited potential, but I think he’s a bit over-priced tonight even though he’s almost guaranteed to give you 45-50 fantasy points at least. ∗∗

DeAndre Jordan-Los Angeles Clippers (8,400): Jordan had a solid game last night in Memphis although I was hoping for more than his 32.9 fantasy points. He made all eight of his shots from the field giving him just one missed FG in his last four games.  He finished last night with 16 points and seven boards, but hopefully he can get back to his double-double ways in a great matchup tonight against the Pelicans.  Jordan had four straight double-doubles before last night including a solid game on Monday against Houston for 48.7 fantasy points. Jordan is in a great matchup against the Pelicans tonight who won’t have Anthony Davis and had already been giving up the second-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing centers.  Jordan could go crazy tonight if he gets big minutes in a close game, so give DeAndre a look if DeMarcus is too pricey for your salary cap space.∗∗∗
