High Salary C

Players costing over $6,250

Andre Drummond (vs IND – $9,700): Needs 46.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 54.75 fantasy points against Indiana. Drummond has continued to put up big numbers and with Blake Griffin out of the lineup, he should keep putting up big numbers. If Griffin returns, it hurts his value a little bit but he’s been great against the Pacers this season, going over 54 fantasy points in two of the three games. You can keep taking with confidence if Griffin is out. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Nikola Vucevic (vs NY – $9,600): Needs 45.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35.25 fantasy points against Toronto. Vucevic has been down in a big way in his last three games as he’s been held under 36 fantasy points in all three contests. The bad news is that his salary has actually jumped despite the poor performances. But the good news is that he gets the Knicks. He’s averaging 54.3 fantasy points in three games against the Knicks and this should be another easy night at the office for him on Wednesday. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Enes Kanter (vs MEM – $6,800): Needs 32.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43.75 fantasy points against Minnesota. Kanter has been over 40 fantasy points in his last two games and if the minutes are there for him, the production is always there for him. And with the Grizzlies depleted across the board, but especially in their frontcourt, this should be another big night for Kanter. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
