High Salary PF
Blake Griffin, DET vs CHI ($9,400): Griffin has been over 50 fantasy points in his last two games and 10-plus fantasy points over value in four of his last five. He needs 41.4 fantasy to reach value on Saturday. He’s turning into a triple-double machine for the Pistons, who look to build something heading into next season. The Bulls are 16th against the position in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. Given his recent play, Griffin should push 50 fantasy points once again. *****
Julius Randle, LAL at MEM ($7,900): The Grizzlies are 28th against the position in their last 15 games. Randle has been over value in six straight. He did struggle against the Grizzlies on Jan. Jan. 15, contributing just 25.1 fantasy points in that one. But the Grizzlies are in far worse shape now than they were then. Given Randle’s play as a starter, he should push 40 fantasy points in this one. ****
Aaron Gordon, ORL vs PHO ($7,800): Gordon had 33.2 fantasy points in 28 minutes against the Sixers on Thursday. He needs 34.3 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. With reports of the Magic firing Frank Vogel and Elfrid Payton returning to Orlando, it should be a weird one in Florida on Saturday. But when the ball is up, Gordon should have no problem delivering against a weak Suns squad that played on Friday night. ****
