High Salary PF

Anthony Davis-New Orleans Pelicans (11,400): Davis will probably be the least-owned 10K+ player tonight which could set you up for a big win if he goes off against the Magic in what should be a very attackable matchup for him. Davis had 25 points and 16 rebounds against the Celtics for 49.2 fantasy points on Monday after leaving Saturday’s game briefly with a back scare for his fantasy owners. “The Brow” has at least 49 fantasy points in five straight but hasn’t reached 55 in and of his last seven games. The Magic do have Serge Ibaka and Bismack Biyombo to throw at him tonight, but Orlando has been struggling so badly that it’s one of the few games where New Orleans should end up in a close game down the stretch. ∗∗∗

Draymond Green-Golden State Warriors (8,300): Green continues to find ways to contribute to the Warriors and his fantasy owners. He had a nice double-double against the Suns on Sunday with defensive numbers boosting him to 45.9 fantasy points. While that was his best total since opening night, he has consistently been around 40 fantasy points with five straight games with at least 39 fantasy points. Green’s game is so multi-faceted that he’s a low-risk play although his ceiling is somewhat limited since he usually isn’t the focus of the offense.∗∗∗

Kristaps Porzingis-New York Knicks (6,900): Porzinigis is still surprisingly under 7K on FanDuel. He has at least 26 fantasy points in six straight games, but has 41.1, 38.1, and 37.7 in his last three home games where the Knicks in general and he specificially has looked much more comfortable this season. He comes into tonight’s matchup against the Pistons off of a very solid 24-point, 11-rebound double-double on Monday against the Mavs. Detroit could be without Andre Drummond again which would leave them short (both literally and figuratively) on bodies to run at Porzingis tonight. He has a ton of upside at this affordable price.∗∗∗∗

Jabari Parker-Milwaukee Bucks (6,400) Parker has been a roller-coaster ride lately, but it looks like it’s time for an “up” game as he and the Bucks take on the Hawks. Parker has at least 39 fantasy points in three of his last five games but has been held under 25 fantasy points in his other two contests. His inconsistency doesn’t seem to be tied to any one particular factor, but playing a Hawks team on a back-to-back after he’s had there days off are definitely factors in his favor tonight. ∗∗
