High Salary PF

Players costing over $6,250

Draymond Green (vs LAC – $6,600): Needs 31.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 32.25 fantasy points against LA Clippers. You typically know what you’re getting out Draymond because he does a bit of everything and he plays for the Warriors. Once again, I love the Warriors on Wednesday because they will not be playing around against an overmatched Clippers squad. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Montrezl Harrell (at GS – $6,000): Needs 28.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 21.25 fantasy points against Golden State. Harrell has been down in the last two games and that is concerning. The ceiling is high but we just haven’t seen it in the last couple of games. I still don’t like the Clippers all that much on Wednesday but Harrell does have the ceiling. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

High Value PF

Players costing $6,250 or under

PJ Tucker (vs UTA – $4,600): Needs 21.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26 fantasy points against Utah. Tucker remains at a great salary given his usual minutes. And he’s just found a way to make an impact in this series. I’ve loved him since the start of the series and he hasn’t given me a reason to doubt him at this point. Keep taking him with confidence. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Jae Crowder (at HOU – $4,300): Needs 19.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.5 fantasy points against Houston. Crowder came alive in Game 4 and I continue to like his overall game. I don’t know if he can do it on the road because the Jazz haven’t done much on the road. His salary is in a good position if nothing else. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
