High Salary C

Andre Drummond, DET vs MIL ($10,300): The Pistons has ran into a wall following the high from the Blake Griffin trade. But Drummond’s production remains solid. He had 61.6 fantasy points against the Raptors on Monday. He posted 59 fantasy points against the Celtics on Dec. 6. Blake Griffin is in a slump right now, and until he comes out of it, Drummond will continue to carry the load for Detroit. He needs 47.1 fantasy points to reach value. He should push 50 fantasy points once again. ****

Steven Adams, OKC at DAL ($7,600): The Mavericks are 28th against the position in their last 15 games. Adams has been miserable in the two games against the Mavericks this season, failing to crack 20 fantasy points on Dec. 31 and posting just 9.6 fantasy points on Nov. 25. He’s playing well as of late and continues to be a force in the paint and on the glass. He’s too good to struggle for a third game against a team as weak as the Mavericks. He’s a solid bet on Wednesday. ***

Marc Gasol, MEM vs PHO ($7,200): Gasol had 42.6 fantasy points against the Celtics on Monday. He’s been a disappointment most of this season, hitting value in just 44 percent of games. He’s averaging 36.8 fantasy points in three games against Phoenix this season. That number would put him four fantasy points over value on Wednesday. The matchup is certainly in his favor given that Phoenix gives up a big game to everyone nowadays. It’s tough not to take advantage of Phoenix, even if Gasol has been a letdown throughout the season. ***
