High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,250

Paul George (at MEM – $9,600): Needs 44.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 50.5 fantasy points against Toronto. George’s shooting has looked better than it has in a while but it can still be a bit streaky compared to where it was during his hot stretch. He’s settled into a nice salary and the Grizzlies play hard, but aren’t a very good team. And George chips in with other categories, which certainly helps his cause. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Tobias Harris (at ORL – $7,200): Needs 33.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.75 fantasy points against Atlanta. Harris has been more of a mixed bag than you would like given how he was producing with the Clippers and he hasn’t even shown that high of a ceiling with the Sixers. But the matchup is good and he did have 50.5 fantasy points against the Magic on Mar. 5. This should be a game where he gets you value if nothing else. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Aaron Gordon (vs PHI – $7,000): Needs 32.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 13.75 fantasy points against Memphis. Of course the moment I start to trust Gordon, he fails to deliver against the Grizzlies. Was it an off night or is he back to be an inconsistent option? He’s averaging 42.1 fantasy points in three games against the Sixers this season. So I’m willing to give him this matchup and hope he bounces back and shows that Memphis was just a bad night. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
