Taj Gibson (vs BOS, $5,900)
Jimmy Butler has been getting all the highlights, but Gibson has been quietly effective since his insertion in the starting lineup. Against the Celtics, he will face a front court that struggles against players that ball like bullies, which is Gibson in a nutshell. Butler has been playing at a high level as of late, but at some point his field goal percentage and scoring will come back down to his season average, making room for guys like Gibson to pick up the slack. Look for that to start on Thursday.
Pau Gasol (vs BOS, $8,000)
I feel like I’m beating on a dead horse here week in and week out by consistently selecting Gasol. But the guy has been an absolute fantasy beast all season and his price tag still, still, has yet to catch up to his production. He should have no problem taking advantage of Boston’s defensively inefficient front court. Jared Sullinger cannot match Gasol’s athleticism and Kelly Olynyk cannot play interior defense. I love Gasol in all formats tonight to continue his torrid 40.5 DKFPPG pace.
