High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Blake Griffin (vs LAL – $8,400): Needs 36.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.3 fantasy points against Miami. I don’t know what’s happening with the Pistons right now but they’ve been terrible in the last two games. The good news is that they are getting the Lakers on a back-to-back. If they can’t figure it out in this game, there might not be any hope for them. He’s not exactly reliable right now, but the ceiling is very high. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.

Bobby Portis (vs CHA – $6,900): Needs 29.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 13.7 fantasy points against Orlando. Portis wasn’t good against the Magic but he’s shown that he doesn’t go into a big slump and usually bounces back strong. This will certainly be the matchup to bounce back against. He’s been over 35 fantasy points in his last three games against the Hornets. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Tobias Harris (vs SAC – $6,900): Needs 29.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 22.3 fantasy points against Cleveland. Harris has been a bit all over the place as of late and Embiid being back in the lineup is still a fit issue that has to be figured out. But I continue to like his game on the Sixers and I really like this matchup. You can always go against the Kings will some confidence. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
