High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Montrezl Harrell (at MIL – $7,800): Needs 33.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33 fantasy points against Minnesota. There’s a lot of talent even above Harrell on Thursday and you can comfortably take a guy like LaMarcus Aldridge or Blake Griffin because they have high ceilings. And Julius Randle has a good matchup and remains the only bonafide NBA player on the team. As for Harrell, he’s been playing very well and I like this matchup for him as the Bucks can be beaten by good energy forwards. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Pascal Siakam (at NY – $7,500): Needs 32 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 20 fantasy points against Chicago. Siakam wasn’t needed against the Bulls and he might not be needed much in this game but with Kawhi out of the lineup, Siakam should see extra opportunities in the lineup. And it’s the Knicks. He should have no problem getting his numbers in this game, even in limited minutes. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Bam Adebayo (vs DAL – $7,100): Needs 30.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.7 fantasy points against Orlando. I told you, there’s a lot to like at the power forward position on Thursday. There’s even some value below these three players and as mentioned above, there is value if you want to spend more. Adebayo has been playing very well and the Mavericks are a great matchup because they aren’t a good team and don’t have much in terms of their frontcourt. Adebayo should be able to put up numbers in all categories against them. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
