High Salary SF

LeBron James, CLE at MIA ($12,300): James had 62 fantasy points against the Nets on Sunday, bouncing back from his 49.7 fantasy points against the Suns. If James plays 30-plus minutes, you can count on him to get you at least 50 fantasy points. Given that the Heat are a solid team on both ends of the court, there is a very good chance that this game is competitive. And if it’s competitive, James will play 30-plus minutes. He’ll get you 50 and likely be over 60 fantasy points once again. *****

Giannis Antetokounmpo, MIL at LAC ($11,200): The Clippers are 28th against the position in their last 15 games. Giannis returned from his one-game absence and posted 41.5 fantasy points against the Spurs on Sunday. He left the Clippers game early last week, but was on pace for a big game. He had 25.4 fantasy points in 17 minutes in that contest. He’s healthy again and should be in for a big game on Tuesday. *****

Otto Porter Jr., WAS vs SA ($7,200): Porter Jr. has been up-and-down in his last six. He was up against the Knicks on Sunday, finishing with 35.5 fantasy points. If the trend holds, that would mean he’ll be down on Tuesday. He did have 34.4 fantasy points against the Spurs a week ago. It’s a tough matchup and his recent trend is worrying. But he’ll get the minutes to produce and he did have a solid game against San Antonio recently. Proceed with caution. ***
