High Salary PF

Giannis Antetokounmpo, MIL vs BOS ($10,800): Antetkounmpo is coming off a value miss where he fouled out against the Nuggets. On paper, the Celtics are a tough matchup, but it’s a matchup he’s done very well against this season. He’s averaging 59.3 fantasy points in three games against Boston, going over 55 fantasy points in each contest. He needs 47.8 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. He should get you around 50 fantasy points in this one. ****

LaMarcus Aldridge, SA at LAC ($8,900): It seems like only an injury can stop Aldridge right now. He’s on a heck of a run right now and it’s unlikely that the Clippers will be the team to slow him down. He needs 40.1 fantasy points to reach value and until he shows signs of slowing down, you should expect him to give you at least 45 fantasy points. He hasn’t been great against the Clippers this season, but they haven’t played since December. This is a different Clippers squad and a LaMarcus Aldridge in beast mode. *****

Paul Millsap, DEN vs IND ($6,700): Millsap posted 50.75 fantasy points against the Thunder and followed that up with 54.25 fantasy points against the Bucks. He needs 30.2 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. He’s a guy who knows how to elevate his game to push his team into the playoffs. Guys like Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic have followed suit. Maybe he won’t hit 50-plus fantasy points in this one, but he should push 40 fantasy points given the matchup and circumstances. ****
