High Salary SF

Players costing over $6,667

Paul George (vs GS – $10,200): Needs 42.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 51.7 fantasy points against Indiana. Paul George has found his shot again and that should be good news for DFS players. He’s been a very reliable option all season but his shot disappearing after the All-Star break has hurt him. If that’s back, he’ll continue to do a bit of everything else to go along with his scoring. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Bojan Bogdanovic (at DEN – $6,700): Needs 27.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33.3 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. All signs point to Kevin Durant playing but as of this writing he’s questionable and I don’t deal in questions, you know what I mean? If Durant plays, he’s reliable. But Bogdanovic will definitely play and he’s always very reliable. He’s been great since Oladipo’s injury and he’ll keep it up. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Kelly Oubre Jr (at NO – $6,600): Needs 27.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 47.8 fantasy points against Houston. You typically know what you’re getting out of Oubre Jr. He’s been very good for the Suns and flashed a high ceiling. And this is a perfect matchup because neither team will offer much in the way of defense. Oubre Jr is averaging 36.2 fantasy points in three games against the Pelicans this year. I love him in this game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
