High Salary C

Anthony Davis, NO vs SA ($11,200): Davis was right on value against the Clippers on Monday, collecting 52 fantasy points in 35 minutes. If there’s one team that has slowed down Davis since DeMarcus Cousins’ injury, it’s been the Spurs. He hasn’t gone over 50 fantasy points in two games against them without Cousins. That said, he’s still going to get you at least 40 fantasy points and the potential for a big game is always there. Plus, it’s just tough to doubt Davis. ***

Nikola Jokic, DEN at MIN ($10,600): Jokic did what he’s done a lot over the past couple of weeks against the Blazers and that’s give you 60-plus fantasy points. He had 52 fantasy points against the Timberwolves a week ago and needs 48.6 fantasy points to reach value on Wednesday. Like I said last week when these two teams battled, expect the centers to put on show. They both delivered then and they’ll deliver again on Wednesday. *****

Karl-Anthony Towns, MIN vs DEN ($10,100): Towns had 49.25 fantasy points in that game against the Nuggets a week ago. He’s coming off a 52.5 fantasy point performance against the Grizzlies on Monday. As I just mentioned, this should be a battle of two of the top centers in the league on Wednesday. Neither team has proven they can slow down other top centers all season and that’s unlikely to change in the last game of the regular season. His ceiling may not be as high as Jokic’s, especially with Jimmy Butler back in the lineup, but he’ll push 50 fantasy points. *****
