High Salary SF

Giannis Antetokounmpo-Milwaukee Bucks (9,600): Antetokounmpo is really the only mega-star in the SF pool tonight with LeBron, Melo, and Paul George playing last night and Kawhi Leonard getting the night off for rest.  “The Alphabet” had “only” 40.2 fantasy points on Wednesday against Cleveland on 24 points, six rebounds, and six assists, to go with a block and two turnovers.  He has been extremely efficient while helping Milwaukee run nthe point and has stepped his scoring up this month as well.  He has at least 40 fantasy points in five of his last six games including an explosion of 77.75 fantasy points against the Nets last Sunday. He can go for a monster triple-double pretty much any night, and he has posted a double-double in each of his two meetings with theHawks this season.  He had 28 points and 16 boards in the teams’ first meeting of the season and followed that up with 19 points and 12 boards in their second game.  Both of those games were Milwaukee wins, and he’ll look to lead his team to victory again tonight as a very solid play if you can afford his nearly 10K salary.

Marcus Morris-Detroit Pistons (5,100): Morris and the Pistons host  the Hornets in an important game tonight for both teams playoff position. Morris and Tobias Harris should have good opportunities since the Hornets play a little smaller at the two forward spots.  Morris has been rolling lately with at least 14 points in four of his last five games and over 22 fantasy points in each of those contests at well. Morris has played over 37 minutes in each of those four games and continues to be a very nice addition to the Pistons after the acquired him from the Suns this offseason. 

Otto Porter-Washington Wizards (5,100): Porter is a solid option tonight as well as he continues to re-emerge after battling injury much of the year.  He has scored in double-digits in each of his last six games and has at least 25 fantasy points in five of his last seven contests.  He did only managed 18.5 fantasy points against the Hawks in a losing effort on Wednesday, but he did get a very nice game with 41.5 fantasy points on a double-double against Atlanta in the first part of the home-and-home on Monday.
