High Salary SF

Kevin Durant-Oklahoma City Thunder (10,500): The same risk of limited minutes is also definitely there for KD as he and the Thunder face the Blazers tonight in Portland.  He dismantled the Nuggets last night getting 51 fantasy points in just 29 minutes on 26 points, eight assists, five rebounds, three steals, and a block.  He has at least 42 fantasy points in eight of his last nine games including each of his last six, and he will again get plenty of work if the Thunder decide to go for a “statement win” against their possible first-round opponent.∗∗

Jae Crowder-Boston Celtics (6,200): After missing a few weeks with a high ankle sprain, Crowder has returned in great form for the C’s posting 31 fantasy points against the Blazers and 42 fantasy points against the Lakers in his first two games back.  He should have the opportunity to continue to ease back in in favorable matchups as he takes on the Pelicans in Boston tonight. 

Marcus Morris-Detroit Pistons (6,200): Morris crashed back to earth last night in Miami managing just a single point and finishing with 6.8 fantasy points after turning the ball over six times agains the Heat.  He had run off six games with at least 15 points in his previous seven contests with 25 fantasy points or more in seven straight.  He needs to bounce back tonight as the Pistons face Orlando in a game they can’t afford to let slip away.  When Morris and the Pistons face Orlando two weeks ago he had 30 fantasy points on 15 points, five boards, and four assists.
