High Salary SF

LeBron James ($12,200): Once again, you know what you’re getting with LeBron. He’s putting up at least 50 fantasy points and there’s always a chance he goes over 60 fantasy points. Given the circumstances, the chance are pretty high that he’s over 60 fantasy points in Game 4. There are no doubts about LeBron on Sunday. *****

Kevin Durant ($10,900): Durant has missed value in all three game this series. But he doesn’t miss by much and he’s getting you a guaranteed 40 fantasy points in Game 4. He’s as steady as they come, the matchup continues to be good, and he’s a nice fallback option if you don’t want to take LeBron. ****

High Value SF

Otto Porter Jr. ($6,000): Porter Jr. has been right at value in the last two games. His salary has jumped to where he needs 26.1 fantasy points to reach value on Sunday. That’s a little concerning, but I have a good feeling about him in Game 4. I think he finds his rhythm and starts knocking down shots from deep. That said, there is a lot of value at small forward and I’ll get to them later. He’s a slight risk, but I’m feeling fairly confident in him. ***

Bojan Bogdanovic ($5,600): Bogdanovic had 32.8 fantasy points in Game 3. He’s been over 30 fantasy points in two of the three games. He’s the role player on Indiana that can step up in these games and he’s done so thus far. Maybe he won’t shoot quite as well in Game 4, but he’ll chip in all over the board. ***
