High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

LaMarcus Aldridge (at POR – $8,500): Needs 36.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39.3 fantasy points against Sacramento. Aldridge should be good to go in this game but check his status before making any decisions. Aldridge typically brings it against his former team. He’s averaging 43.9 fantasy points in his last five games against the Blazers. Expect Aldridge to deliver once again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Montrezl Harrell (at IND – $8,000): Needs 34.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 39 fantasy points against Charlotte. I love Harrell in this game. No Tobias Harris. Possibly no Gallinari. This is going to be all Harrell in the frontcourt. He’s shown a high ceiling throughout this season and this feels like a monster game for him given the circumstances. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Serge Ibaka (at ATL – $6,700): Needs 29 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35.5 fantasy points against Philadelphia. Ibaka continues to run hot for the Raptors and I see no reason to doubt him at this points. The scoring and rebounding are there in a big way for him right now and I trust him to keep it up given this matchup. He’s been reliable against the Hawks this season but expect more in this one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
