High Salary PF

Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (8,600): Green’s personality and his numbers both continue to sine as the Warriors push toward’s the best regular season record of all time. He played a massive 43 minutes against the Jazz on Wednesday finishing with 13 points, eight rebounds, and six assists for 33.6 fantasy points. That total broke a string of three straight games with at least 45 fantasy points, and he’ll look to get back to that level tonight against Boston who allows the fourth-most fantasy points in the in NBA to opposing PF. Green dominated the C’s when they met earlier this season finishing with 24 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists, five blocks, and five steals. I think he’ll be ready for another huge game at ORACLE tonight. 

Paul Millsap-Atlanta Hawks (8,000): Millsap and the Hawks are quietly playing well as the season comes to a close although they did drop a game in Toronto on Wednesday.  Millsap is a master of balance production as he has showed in his last five games averaging 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.2 blocks. 2.4 steals, and 3.6 assists.  He had at least 40 fantasy points in three straight before struggling a bit North of the Border on Wednesday.  Against the Cavs and Kevin Love, he should be back to around 40 fantasy points tonight. 

Zach Randolph-Memphis Grizzlies (7,500): Z-Bo has been in and out of the lineup for much of the season, but recently he’s looked good when he’s on the floor.  He has at least 34 fantasy points in each of his last four games and looked strong in his most recent return on Wednesday against the Nuggets finishing with 26 points and six rebounds for 35.2 fantasy points. He is expected to be active again tonight and will get all the work he can handle from a Memphis team desperate for offense due to a ton of injuries. 

Alex Len-Phoenix Suns (6,500): Len and the Suns host Washington who has struggled to defend opposing PF for much of the season.  Len will probably be matched up against former-teammate Markieff Morris tonight as he goes for his third straight double-double.  Len had a big game in Milwaukee on Wednesday finishing with 44.5 fantasy points on 17 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, and two blocks. Len isn’t a lock since he’s been up-and-down lately, but in a good matchup at home I like him to produce a solid stat line. 

Tobias Harris-Detroit Pistons (6,300): Even with the return of Stanley Johnson and Anthony Tolliver, Tobias Harris has continued to get good amount of minutes and usually produce solid points and rebounds for the Pistons.  He has at least 30 fantasy points in three of his last four games highlighted by 40.5 fantasy points against Atlanta on Saturday. Harris is a low-risk play since he’s involved just about every night, but he doesn’t have a super-high ceiling like Len does.  If I had to choose, I’d go Harris for safety but Len for upside.
