High Salary PF
Giannis Antetokounmpo ($10,600): Antetokounmpo is the one constant from the Bucks right now. There is little doubt about his contributions and Middleton is about the only other guy worthy of adding beside him. Unless Eric Bledsoe shows up or Jabari Parker gets consistent playing time, Antetkounmpo is the go-to guy on the Bucks roster. *****
LeBron James ($11,800): It took a heroic effort from James and even that almost wasn’t enough for the Cavaliers to take Game 2. Win or lose, you know LeBron is going to deliver in the playoffs. They’ll need him to be outstanding once again, especially if Kevin Love is unable to play. There are zero doubts about James for pretty much the rest of the playoffs. *****
High Value PF
Serge Ibaka ($6,000): Ibaka was hot once again in Game 2, contributing 30.75 fantasy points. If the Wizards decide to go small, that means more playing time for Ibaka, a versatile defender who can switch all positions. There are some concerns about the Raptors going on the road, but I don’t have those concerns when it comes to Ibaka. He’s going to put up points and rebounds while chipping in on defense. ****
Mike Scott ($3,800): Did the Wizards find something in Scott? It’s certainly looked like it through two games. The Wizards might be more inclined to play him over Marcin Gortat and he’s currently playing more than Markieff Morris. As long as he’s going to play nearly 30 minutes, he’s a safe bet to be over value, especially at this price. ***
