High Salary C

Anthony Davis ($12,500): Davis had 70.4 fantasy points in the Apr. 7 game against the Warriors and averaging 65 fantasy points in three regular season games. To say they had no answer for him would be an understatement. He needs 48.5 fantasy points to hit value on Saturday. He’ll be over 50 fantasy points without too much trouble and possibility of 65-plus fantasy points is certainly in play. *****

Al Horford ($7,700): Horford is the one guy on Boston who I feel you can count on in Game 7. He’s been in this situation before and he’s been the best player on the Celtics all series. He still presents matchup problems and that hasn’t change heading into Game 7. Expect him to push 40 fantasy points at the very least. ****

High Value C

JaVale McGee ($4,000): He’s going to start and play some early minutes. Maybe he sees extra playing time due to his athleticism against Anthony Davis. But he’s not exactly reliable and it’s possible he turns unplayable as Davis kills him on every possession. *

Thon Maker ($3,600): You can substitute him with Aron Baynes, Greg Monroe, and Tyler Zeller. Maker and Zeller will likely see the most minutes, which counts for something. But none of them are great options unless you’re grabbing sure things elsewhere. *
