High Salary Forwards/Centers

Players costing over $12,000

Draymond Green (at POR – $16,000): Needs 64.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 66.6 fantasy points against Portland. I’ve been banging the Draymond drum all series because I said the Blazers frontcourt would have no answer for him. And the Blazers frontcourt has had no answer for him. Draymond will continue to feast in Game 4. He should be a top 2 pick again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Maurice Harkless (vs GS – $11,000): Needs 43.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 24.6 fantasy points against Golden State. Harkless was better in Game 3 because it would have been tough for him to be worse. He’s as small as the Blazers are willing to go and he’s getting the minutes over Aminu at the moment. He’s a solid enough option given the price and his role on the team. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Zach Collins (at GS – $9,000): Needs 36.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 20.6 fantasy points against Golden State. Collins stepped up and played well enough in Game 3. He will continue to get decent enough minutes as Enes Kanter, as expected, is unplayable in this series. He’s not a bad low-cost option. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
