High Salary C

Al Horford-Atlanta Hawks (7,400): Horford is the big-money spend at center tonight, but he hasn’t had a good game in either of the two contests so far against the Cavs.  Horford scored ten points in each game and finished with just 28.5 fantasy points and 17.25 fantasy points in the two games in Cleveland.  He dominated round 1, but he has found it much harder work going up against Tristan Thompson and the Cavs solid rebounding down low.∗

Steven Adams-Oklahoma City Thunder (5,200): While Durant and Westbrook rightfully get the start attention, Adams is the hustle factor that the Thunder needed in Game 2 and will need to keep this series close going forward. Adams had a solid game in Game 1 with nine points and ten boards for 23 fantasy points in 25 minutes, but he stepped up even larger in Game 2 with good defense (even at the end) and 12 points to go with 17 rebounds for a huge 37.75 fantasy points. Of all the centers tonight, Adams is my favorite play and I love him at this affordable price. ∗∗∗∗∗
