High Salary PF

Kevin Love ($8,100): Love is currently listed as playing in Game 3, but check his status before making any decisions. Rebounding saved him in Game 1, but he wasn’t so fortunate in Game 2. His lack of scoring contributions has been a big reason why the Cavaliers have struggled with the Pacers this series. He’ll need to be better if they want to take one in Indiana. And with a thumb injury, I’m not sure it’ll happen in Game 3. **

High Value PF

Serge Ibaka ($6,300): Ibaka has been great in both games and if the Wizards decide to go small, that just means more minutes for Ibaka. He’s a guy that contributes in multiple categories and with the way he’s playing right now, there’s little reason to doubt him. Even with the increased salary, there aren’t concerns with Ibaka. ***
Marcus Morris ($5,700): Morris has been hitting tough shots in this series, which has me concerned about how he’ll perform on the road. But he’s been hitting tough shots his entire career, which has me less concerned. He’s a matchup problem for the Bucks and his value really starts to show in these playoff battles. ***

John Henson ($5,500): Thank to his low cost, high playing time, and ability to do a little bit of everything, Henson has been over value in both games. He’s not the scoring piece the Bucks need right now, but for your fantasy team, he’s a solid option who will deliver due to the reasons just mentioned. ***
