High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Tobias Harris (at DAL – $8,100): Needs 35.3 fantasy points. Harris was up to 63.3 fantasy points against the Spurs on Jan. 20. He’s been reliable all season and with Lou Williams and Danilo Gallinari out of the lineup, Harris will carry more of the scouring and rebounding load. He’s also picked up his passing, which has been good for his value. He hasn’t been great against the Mavericks this season but the circumstances are good. Diagnosis:

Montrezl Harrell (at DAL – $7,800): Needs 34 fantasy points. While Harris stepped up with the injuries, Harrell had a slightly tougher time. He had just 24.8 fantasy points against the Spurs on Jan. 20. That’s the bad news. The good news is that Harrell has been very good against the Mavericks this season, averaging 39.4 fantasy points in two games and 1.51 FPPM. So there is a reason to believe that he’ll bounce back in this one. Diagnosis: Proven matchup and a high ceiling. But a bit cold.

Pascal Siakam (vs SAC – $6,900): Needs 30 fantasy points. Siakam just continues to chug along. You know what you’re getting from him on most nights. He’s been a reliable option all season and his value increases if he’s able to boost his assist numbers. The rebounding and scoring will typically be there. The matchup is a good one with the Kings pace and being on a back-to-back. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
