High Salary SF

Players costing over $6,250

Paul George (vs TOR – $9,800): Needs 45.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 57.25 fantasy points against Miami. Paul George looks to be back in form and with Westbrook back in the lineup, George will find things easier on the offensive end. The matchup is tough, especially if Kawhi decides to play, but PG has been a strong option all season and now that he’s back into rhythm, he’s a safe play once again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Luka Doncic (at POR – $8,900): Needs 42 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 66.75 fantasy points against New Orleans. Luka has been over 55 fantasy points in three of his last four. The Blazers can be a tough matchup but without McCollum, they are a bit weaker. And I’m not doubting Luka at this point. End of the season with no pressure is when rookies can really shine and Luka was shining even when there was pressure. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Kawhi Leonard (at OKC – $8,400): Needs 38.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 56 fantasy points against Detroit. I don’t know if Kawhi is going to play. No one knows if Kawhi is going to play until the Raptors decide five minutes before the game that he’s going to play. Assuming he plays, George is a guy who is going to bring out the best in him. And if Lowry is out, all of the offense will run through him. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
