High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Paul Millsap (vs UTA – $8,400): Needs 36.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.5 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Millsap cooled off a little against the Thunder but don’t be too concerned. He’ll pick his game back up against the Jazz given the circumstances. He’s been a strong performer since the break and I trust he’ll keep his game up because he knows what it takes to make a strong playoff push. Expect a bounce-back performance in this one. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Tobias Harris (at OKC – $7,500): Needs 32.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 49.5 fantasy points against New Orleans. I continue to love Harris’ game in Philly and now he’s got a good matchup against the Thunder. With the Sixers lacking Embiid and Boban, Harris will be involved even more as he’s now their best frontcourt player by a wide margin. He typically plays well against the Thunder. He’ll deliver in this one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Kevin Love (at NY – $7,500): Needs 32.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.9 fantasy points against Portland. Love is getting more minutes and looks more comfortable with each passing game. And now he gets the Knicks. His salary has jumped but it’s still not high enough given the minutes he should get in this game and just how good he is. He’ll be the best player on the floor and he’ll play like it. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
