High Salary SF

LeBron James-Cleveland Cavaliers (10,700): James is the biggest name on the board tonight and is coming off a solid Game 2 when he had 43.5 fantasy points on 27 points, six rebounds, three assists, and three steals in his 40 minutes.  He was even better in Game 1 with 55 fantasy points on 22 points, 11 assists, six rebounds, and three steals.  He has the potential to carry your fantasy team any time he takes the floor and there is very little “bust” potential tonight unless, of course, Stanley Johnson is truly in his head. Since he isn’t, LeBron is a good play tonight. 

Kawhi Leonard-San Antonio Spurs (9,000): If you can’t afford LeBron or if you have the money to go with a SF super-stack, check out Kawhi Leonard as he and the Spurs take on Memphis.  Kawhi has played 29 and 27 minutes in the first two games of the series posting 37.5 and 22.25 fantasy points in those two outings. The only hesitation with Kawhi is  the same question for all the Spurs of how much they’ll need to play as they look to dispatch the Grizzlies. Kawhi has been good when he’s been on the floor, but his uncertain playing time is cause for caution.
