High Salary PF

Anthony Davis, NO at SAC ($13,000): It’s not a matter of will Davis hit value, it’s a matter of how high he’ll go over value. He had 78.1 fantasy points against the Clippers on Tuesday. His salary is up to where he needs 55 fantasy points to hit value against the Kings. He takes up a big chunk of your salary, but he’s more than worth it when he’s able to go over 70 fantasy points. Given the matchup, another 70-plus fantasy point game is not out of the question. Maybe he’ll slow down at some point, but don’t count on it. *****

Julius Randle, LAL vs ORL ($8,600): Randle’s hot streak continues as he’s been over value in seven straight. His salary has finally raised to where he needs 36.6 fantasy points to hit value. Seeing how he’s been over that number in every game during this stretch, he should continue to deliver, especially against a good matchup like Orlando and with Brandon Ingram out of the lineup. He’ll be around 40 fantasy points once again. ***

Larry Nance Jr., CLE at DEN ($7,500): Nance Jr. picked up the start against the Pistons and delivered with 47.5 fantasy points. His salary has jumped nearly $2,000 to where he needs 31.9 fantasy points to hit value on Wednesday. He should see 30-plus minutes once again as the Cavaliers look for revenge from Saturday’s defeat at the hand of the Nuggets. Nance Jr. had 23.6 fantasy points in 20 minutes in that one. With his expanded role, Nance Jr. should continue to post big games. ****
