High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,250

Anthony Davis (at BOS – $10,900): Needs 51.5 fantasy points. Davis underperformed against the Pistons on Sunday, but don’t be concerned. He’s still Anthony Davis. And you know he wants to make a good impression on his future team. He had 65.5 fantasy points against the Celtics on Nov. 26. You know what you’re getting from Davis on most nights. And the fact that he had an off-night on Sunday means he’ll likely be better on Monday. Diagnosis: It’s Anthony Davis in a game that should be close.

Paul George (vs UTA – $8,800): Needs 40.5 fantasy points. George continues to struggle with his shot, but he also continues to do a little bit of everything in all categories. At this point, you know what to expect from him. He’s a reliable option due to his all-around ability and if his shot is falling, he’s going to have a big game. He’ll look to make up for that dreadful Game 6 performance in the playoffs, which could be great news or very bad news. Diagnosis: Reliable, high ceiling, and it’s personal for him.

Danilo Gallinari (at PHO – $6,800): Needs 31.3 fantasy points. I’ve tried to stay away from naming too many Clippers because I don’t think this game will be all that competitive, which means most of their guys will underperform a bit. But Gallinari is at such a good salary and has been so reliable this season that I have to include him. It’s the Suns. The Clippers will roll and Gallinari will post a well-rounded game. Diagnosis: Reliable, good ceiling, and Suns.
