High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,250

LeBron James (at MIL – $10,200): Needs 47.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 53.5 fantasy points against New York. LeBron isn’t playing many minutes but he’s still delivering in the minutes he is playing. The Bucks can. Be a tough matchup but if Giannis is out of the lineup, the matchup becomes easier for him. LeBron still seems to care about his numbers if nothing else, so that helps. But there’s always a chance he stops caring, which hurts his reliability. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Kevin Durant (at MIN – $8,900): Needs 41.2 fantasy points. You typically know what you’re getting out of Durant. And if the Warriors decide to rest players, that’s only going to boost Durant’s value, assuming he’s not the one being rested. He can’t exactly get numbers if he doesn’t play. He’s always a reliable option on the Warriors no matter the matchup but the matchup is certainly a good one. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Montrezl Harrell (vs IND – $6,600): Needs 31.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43 fantasy points against Brooklyn. Harrell has been. Over 42 fantasy poets in three straight games. He looks to be back in form after a rough stretch following the break. He should get plenty of minutes against the Pacers frontcourt, who can always be a tough matchup. But they are on a back-to-back and Harrell’s energy can really burn them. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
