High Salary SF

Giannis Antetokounmpo – Milwaukee Bucks ($9700): As I noted in the point guard section, Giannis was slowed down by the Bulls in his last game after posting consecutive 60+ FP games. Tonight he goes up against the Hornets, a team he lit up for 53.75 earlier in the season. Hopefully Giannis will get back to the 20+ shots he took in three straight games before the lull against the Bulls.

Robert Covington – Philadelphia 76ers ($6800): Covington has a super-spicy matchup against Brooklyn tonight, and it should be a tight game where there will be a ton of fantasy points available. Covington has averaged just about 35 FP per game against the Nets this season, but expect a looser defense tonight and a bigger total for the Sixers swingman.

T.J. Warren – Phoenix Suns ($7200): Warren came back and played very well in his last game so he seems to be past the injury he was battling. He had a double-double against Charlotte in his last game and put up 46 FP. Atlanta is shorthanded and Phoenix is bad defensively, so look for a lot of fantasy points to be scored in this game.

Paul George – Indiana Pacers ($8400): George had posted consecutive 50+ FP games before settling on 34.5 against Philly in his last outing. He scored 32 points against the Timberwolves earlier this season, a game in which he ended up with 46.5 FP. George has been hitting the boards and picking up steals on the regular, and Minnesota allows opposing teams to shoot it at a high percentage. The salary seems a bit pricey, but if he drops a 50-burge on them he will be worth it.
