High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Anthony Davis (at MIA – $12,300): Needs 49.9 fantasy points. You know what you’re getting from Davis. He had 56.5 fantasy points against the Wizards on Nov. 28. If nothing else, he’s going to get you at least 50 fantasy points. And the potential is always there for him to break the system. He puts up numbers in all categories and can make a big defensive impact. Diagnosis: Always reliable and a high ceiling. The matchup should keep his minutes up.

Blake Griffin (vs CHI – $9,100): Needs 36.9 fantasy points. Griffin has been down in the last couple of games but still had 40.3 fantasy points against the Knicks on Nov. 27. The Pistons have had a couple of days off, which should benefit him and the team. The bigger benefit is playing against the Bulls, who don’t play defense. Griffin will get his numbers. Diagnosis: The points will definitely be there. The rest of the numbers should be there as well.

Jayson Tatum (vs CLE – $6,900): Needs 28 fantasy points. Tatum was up to 40.9 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Nov. 26. Much like the Pistons, the Celtics have had a lot of time off and should be ready to go on Friday. It helps that they’ll be up against the Cavaliers, who are not very good, especially on defense. Tatum will get his points and then some. Diagnosis: Good salary and matchup. A blowout is possible.
