High Salary SF

Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11,300): Antetokounmpo had 40.9 fantasy points in Game 4. His rebounding and assist numbers were down and he didn’t have his usual impact on the defensive end. He’ll need to be better in Boston and given the uncertainties around the rest of the Milwaukee roster, he will be better in Boston. Look for him to bounce back with a big game. ****

Kevin Durant ($10,900): Durant continued his steady play with 52.6 fantasy points in Game 4. You know what you’re getting out of Durant. He’s not going to kill your team and there’s always a chance he’s over 50 fantasy points. This feels like a game where he’s over 50 fantasy points with the Warriors being back in Golden State and chance to close things out. *****

High Value SF

Andre Iguodala ($4,700): Iguodala struggled in Game 4, but don’t expect that to happen again. He lacked the confidence that he had in the previous games and that confidence won’t be lacking in Game 5. Much like Klay Thompson, the two Warriors guards will be better in Golden State. ***

Justise Winslow ($4,500): Winslow has been up-and-down in this series. He was down in Game 4 and his salary has dropped to where he needs 19.4 fantasy points in Game 5. But if Josh Richardson is unable to play, that’s going to open up more minutes for Winslow. If Richardson plays, he’s a riskier option. ***
