Big Money Ballers
Marc Gasol(C, 136000) - Gasol put up 20/10 game one, and that will easily be repeated again tonight. He’s worth every penny as is fantasy point production should only increase if Memphis wants to win this series
Kevin Durant (F, 200000) - KD is the sole chance of the Thunder making a finals run in this years NBA playoffs with Westbrook done for the year. He’s is extremely expensive but you almost have to pay the price for his ridiculous fantasy production. With only a 2 game slate tonight find a way to fit him in.
Paul George (G, 164000) - PG is a triple double threat any game as he proved during the Hawks series. Truly one of the rising stars in the NBA he will continue to get it done on both sides of the court for the Pacers as they look to beat the Knicks.
Penny Pushers
Tayshaun Prince(F, 64800) - Prince has been a boom/bust type player all throughout the playoffs but on two game nights you only have so many options. His salary won’t break your team and with so few options his potential upside makes him a great play.
David West(F, 96800) - West’s matchup against the porous Knick front court is going to continue to be great for his fantasy production this series. His price should be quite a bit higher than this due to his production. Get him in your lineups before that price goes up!
Quincy Pondexter(F, 42400) - Quincy won’t do anything fancy for your team but he is a great low salary play to allow you to fit in more stars in your lineup. He’s seeing consistent minutes off the bench and getting in consistent production.
Kevin Martin(G, 70400) - Kmart is finally performing like OKC wanted him to, and he’s doing it just in time with it being the playoffs. He will continue to provide a lot of scoring to fill in for the points missing with Westbrook’s absence and is seeing a lion’s share of minutes in the playoffs.
Reggie Jackson(G, 85600) - Reggie’s production wasn’t as high game one of this series as it was during the Houston series because Conley is a much tougher defender then Beverley/Lin. That being said, Westbrook is still out and Reggie is still seeing a ton of minutes. He might not put up quite the numbers he did in round 1 but he’s still going to get it done.
Lance Stephenson(G, 88000) - Lance has been a double double machine throughout the playoffs and put in a great showing game one versus the Knicks. His salary sits at a beautiful price for his production and is a no brainer play tonight.
Tyson Chandler(C, 61600) - If you don’t want to pay for both Hibbert and Gasol tonight then Chandler remains pretty much your only cheaper option. He has been far removed from his normal self, but at this price he can save you some cap space and still get some work in.
