High Salary PF

Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (9,400): Green will lead the charge into Houston tonight and should be set up for another good game against the so-so front court defense of the Rockets.  Green had 12 points in both Game 1 and Game 2 and added enough non-scoring stats to get to 44 and 49 fantasy points in those two games.  He should be in a similar spot tonight as he helps the Warriors compensate for no Curry, and he’ll get his multi-category production as he does work down low.  I think he will be near a triple-double tonight as the Warriors look to take a dominating 3-0 series lead. 

Dirk Nowitzki-Dallas Mavericks (6,100): Dirk is officially questionable, but it looks like he’ll try and gut it out tonight after a bone bruise he sustained on Monday.  Dirk  had similar lines in both the first two games of the series with 23 fantasy points in Game 1 and 22 fantasy points in Game 2.  If you can’t afford Green, he’s the next best option, but the injury is a real cause for concern if you’re looking to invest in Dirk.
