High Value Forwards/Centers

Players costing over $12,000

Montrezl Harrell (vs GS – $12,000): Needs 52.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 35 fantasy points against Golden State. While Green is more reliable than Harrell, Harrell has proven to have the higher ceiling. He’s a guy who can put up big scoring and rebounding numbers, but he’s also a guy who can be held in check if the Warriors shut down the pick-and-roll. He hasn’t been good at home, which is the concern. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

JaMychal Green (vs GS – $8,500): Needs 36.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 22.8 fantasy points against Golden State. Green has played fairly well during this series and he’s getting the minutes. He’s not a bad option as he should get you some decent numbers. But the ceiling isn’t all that much. He’s still a nice salary saver. Diagnosis: Reliable with a decent ceiling.

Andrew Bogut (at LAC – $9,500): Needs 42.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 18 fantasy points against LA Clippers. Bogut was down in Game 5 but he will continue to get decent minutes and we know he can put up numbers because everyone on the Warriors can put up numbers. I actually like Green more than Bogut as it helps save you a little bit of money as Green is slightly more reliable. But Bogut has the higher ceiling. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a good ceiling
