High Salary SF

Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11,500): Giannis has been the best player on the court all series. And in Game 7, sometimes being the best player on the court is all that matters. He needs 47.4 fantasy points to reach value. I’d be shocked if he’s held under 50 fantasy points on Saturday. Expect a monster night out of him. *****

Kevin Durant ($10,200): Durant’s value is slightly dependent on Curry’s status. Without him, he’ll easily hit value and likely end up around 50 fantasy points with a chance to have a huge game. With Curry, he’ll still hit value, but his ceiling isn’t quite as high. He’s the big advantage for the Warriors in this series, especially if Curry plays. There’s simply no answer for him on the offensive end. *****

High Value SF

Jayson Tatum ($6,200): Tatum has been up-and-down for most of this series. He was up IN game 6, finishing with 33.1 fantasy points. This is his first Game 7 and his inconsistency in the series has me weary about his chances to hit value. He’s a slight risk, but if he’s able to raise his game, he could be around 35 fantasy points. **

E’Twaun Moore ($4,400): Flip a coin between Moore and Iguodala as your cost saving option. Or go with the guy who best fits your lineup based on salary. Moore was good in the Apr. 7 game against the Warriors, finishing with 25.5 fantasy points. He’s going to get minutes and shots, if nothing else. *
