High Salary SF

LeBron James ($12,100): It’s LeBron. It’s the playoffs. It’s Toronto. I’m running out of ways to describe LeBron and ways to tell you that if you want to build around him, build around him. He’s going to be at a minimum of 60 fantasy points. The only concern is this one being a blowout. *****

Jayson Tatum ($6,800): With Brown coming off the bench, Tatum has seen more scoring opportunities alongside the starters. If Brown ends up returning to the starting lineup, Tatum’s value drops a bit. But he’s good enough for at least value at this price. ***

High Value SF

Marco Belinelli ($4,700): On the theory of “role players play better at home,” Belinelli played better in Game 3. Sticking with that theory again, he should be good enough for at least 20 fantasy points. ***

Kyle Korver ($4,600): Once again, you can flip a coin between Korver and J.R. Smith. It was Korver’s time to shine in Game 3, but it could just as easily be Smith’s in Game 4. With Smith going cold in Game 3, Korver seems like the better option. ***
