High Salary SF

Players costing over $6,250

Giannis Antetokounmpo (at SA – $11,100): Needs 52.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 53.25 fantasy points against Charlotte. It’s Giannis. The Spurs are a tough matchup at home and the Bucks are on a back-to-back and I’m not entirely sure that they won’t rest Giannis since it’s a West opponent. But assuming he plays, Giannis will be Giannis. He had 74.5 fantasy points when these teams met on Nov. 24. Granted, the Spurs defense was far worse then and they are better at home. But it’s still Giannis. He’ll deliver. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Kevin Durant (vs PHO – $9,200): Needs 43.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 45 fantasy points against Denver. You just know what you’re getting out of Durant on most nights. He’s a reliable option and the numbers are always there because of the team he plays on. Even if the Warriors are in “don’t care” mode, Durant is still a reliable option. He hasn’t shown his ceiling in a while and there isn’t much reason for him to show it against the Suns. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a decent ceiling.

Luka Doncic (vs HOU – $8,800): Needs 41.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.5 fantasy points against Orlando. Luka looks to be back in form as Trae Young makes a late push for ROY. That’s probably not fueling Luka too much, but I dunno, maybe? The matchup is tough because the Rockets are playing great right now. But someone has to get numbers for the Mavericks and Luka is Luka. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
