High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Josh Jackson (at DAL – $8,100): Needs 34.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.8 fantasy points against Houston. Jackson is another member of the Suns who will continue to get it done with Booker out of the lineup. He has the highest ceiling but he also has a higher salary. But as I’ve been saying throughout these slides, I love this game because the offense is going to be there for both teams. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Larry Nance Jr (vs CHA – $7,400): Needs 31.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 42.5 fantasy points against San Antonio. Even if Kevin Love plays, there’s no guarantee that he’s going to play big minutes. Meanwhile, Nance Jr is getting strong minutes and it putting up big numbers. And now he gets to go up against the Hornets and their lack of a frontcourt. He should be in for another big night. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Draymond Green (at NO – $7,200): Needs 30.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 57.5 fantasy points against LA Clippers. Even in limited minutes, this is Green’s time to shine. He can put up numbers in all categories and he easily gets numbers given the team he’s on. And he’s up against a Pelicans team that hasn’t played defense all season. If nothing else, he’s a very reliable option. But expect more. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
