High Salary PF

Kristaps Porzingis, NY vs MIL ($8,800): Porzingis posted 56.6 fantasy points against the Hawks on Saturday. He had 30.4 fantasy points against the Bucks last week. He needs 37.5 fantasy points to hit value on Tuesday. Last weeks performance against the Bucks has me a bit weary of how he’ll perform on Tuesday. On top of that, the Knicks forward has been inconsistent this year, hitting value in 53 percent of games. He has a high ceiling, but recent play makes him a risk. **

Ben Simmons, PHI vs WAS ($8,500): Simmons missed value by one fantasy points against the Pacers on Saturday. He’s been fantastic against the Wizards this season, averaging 55.1 fantasy points in two games against them. Both games took place prior to December, so it’s tough to put too much stock into them, but it goes to show the kind of damage Simmons can do. The Wizards have been great without John Wall, but on a back-to-back, they have an uphill battle. ****

Draymond Green, GS vs OKC ($8,000): Green has missed value in three straight and five of his last six. He had 30.8 fantasy points against the Thunder on Nov. 22. The shooting for the Warriors should be huge on Tuesday, but Green’s lack of shooting hurts his value. He needs 34.1 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. He’s played worse at home this season and the things he does, doesn’t show up on the fantasy sheet. Proceed with caution when it comes to Green. ***
