High Salary PF

Tobias Harris, LAC at DEN ($7,500): Harris had 58.4 fantasy points against the Suns on Friday. He’s been over value in three straight games. Danilo Gallinari is listed as questionable on Tuesday. If he’s unable to play, that should open up more opportunities for Harris in the Clippers offense. Points should be a plenty in this game and Harris has scored over 20 points in three straight. To go along with his scoring, he’s contributing on the glass and with assists. Another 40 fantasy point night is not out of the question. ****

Ben Simmons, PHI at MIA ($9,000): Simmons has been over value in seven straight. He would have missed value against the Magic, but wasn’t available in any slate. His minutes were down in that one anyway. This game should be a competitive one, which means Simmons’ minutes will be up and his production should follow suit. He needs 39 fantasy points to reach value in this contest. He played well in both games earlier this month, averaging 49.6 fantasy points in the two contests. Expect Simmons to be over 40 fantasy points once again. ****

Zach Randolph, SAC at POR ($6,800): Randolph didn’t play against the Timberwolves on Monday. My assumption is that he’ll see minutes on Tuesday as the Kings like to hold the veteran out in back-to-back situations. Assuming he plays, and he plays 30 minutes, he’ll be around value. Your other high salary option is Bobby Portis, who I’m not too high on given the matchup and back-to-back situation. Randolph should be well rested and ready to go against his former team. He had 30.8 fantasy points against the Blazers on Feb. 9. ***
