High Salary PF

Blake Griffin, DET vs CHI ($9,500): Griffin has found his role in the Pistons system over the last couple of weeks. He’s been over 50 fantasy points in four of his last five. After a long west coast road trip, the Pistons finally return home and they come up against a good matchup. The Bulls are 25th against power forwards in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. With the way Griffin is playing right now, you should expect him to be around 50 fantasy points once again. ****

Julius Randle, LAL at MEM ($8,300): Randle had 41 fantasy points against the Pelicans, bouncing back after barely missing value against the Pacers. He needs 38.1 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. He did struggle in the Jan. 15 meeting against the Grizzlies, finishing with 24 fantasy points in 22 minutes. He’s unlikely to shoot as poorly as he did in that contest, especially with the way the Grizzlies have played over the last month. ****

Kyle Kuzma, LAL at MEM ($6,600): Kuzma has been over value in four of his last five and is coming off a 34.75 fantasy point performance against the Pelicans on Thursday. There is a chance that Brandon Ingram plays on Saturday, and if he does, Kuzma will head back to the bench. In that case, at this salary, he’s not worth the risk and you may find value in Ingram ($5,900) instead. Assuming Kuzma starts, he should be over 30 fantasy points given the matchup. ****
