High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,667

Draymond Green (vs LAC – $7,700): Needs 33.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35.9 fantasy points against LA Clippers. It’s playoff time and the Warriors are playing an overmatched team. That means Draymond Green is going to do what Draymond Green does best. That means dominating teams and flexing on them. He’s a reliable option if nothing else but there’s better value given his salary. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a decent ceiling.

Tobias Harris (vs BKN – $7,200): Needs 31.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 24.4 fantasy points against Brooklyn. Harris continues to struggle to fit in with the Sixers and now we can start to panic a bit. The minutes and opportunities will continue to be there and if Embiid doesn’t end up playing, that’ll be better news for the Sixers. Otherwise, he’s a slight risk. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Montrezl Harrell (at GS – $6,700): Needs 29.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46 fantasy points against Golden State. There are no great options at the value position so we’re just going with high salary guys. You can spend nothing at this position and burn the spot in order to load up at the two guard positions. Harrell’s energy can hurt the Warriors and the Clippers need all the energy they can get if they hope to make these games competitive. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
