High Salary SF

LeBron James, CLE vs BKN ($11,500): James has been over 50 fantasy points in seven straight contests. He needs 50.4 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. He’s doing it all in the Cavaliers offense right now and that should continue against the Nets. Points and rebounds won’t be an issue for the Cavaliers star. He’ll pick up plenty of assists as well, even more if his teammates don’t let him down. He’ll be over 50 fantasy points and likely over 55 fantasy points on Tuesday. *****

Giannis Antetokonmpo, MIL vs WAS ($11,000): Antetokounmpo missed value against the Pelicans on Sunday, turning in a disappointing 39.8 fantasy points. He should be in line for a bounce back game on Tuesday against the Wizards. He was over 60 fantasy points in two January games against Washington. He needs 48.2 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. 50-plus fantasy points should not be a problem for the Milwaukee forward as he puts up numbers in all categories. *****

Otto Porter Jr., WAS at MIL ($7,200): After missing value in two straight, Porter Jr. was back over value against the Sixers. He had 38.9 fantasy points in that contest. He’s averaging 31.2 fantasy points in two games against the Bucks this season. That number would put him right at value on Tuesday. Expect him to be over that number given the circumstances. He’s stepped up with John Wall out of the lineup and should continue to do so in this contest. 35-plus fantasy points should be the minimum for the Wizards forward. ****
