High Value SG

Joe Johnson-Brooklyn Nets (5,000): Johnson continues to play heavy minutes for the Nets and be one of their best offensive options. He has at least 13 points in four of his last five games and has been able to reach 20 fantasy points in each of those four contests. Tonight, he’ll be in a brutal matchup with Kawhi Leonard and the Spurs, but the Nets don’t have many other options so look for Johnson to keep getting minutes and shots even with a change in the head coach’s chair. ∗

Gerald Green-Miami Heat (4,000): Green has had a good trip so far for Miami scoring 21 points on Friday night in Phoenix and adding four boards and three assists for a total of 32.3 fantasy points. He followed that up the next night in Utah with 25.7 fantasy points on 13 points, six rebounds, two steals, an assist, and a block. He continues to come off the bench for Miami and will likely continue to do so with Dwyane Wade probable tonight. Green could get extra time, though, if Wade’s shoulder does give him trouble or if the game gets out of hand early with the Warriors running away with it. At such a low price, I think there’s a good chance Green returns value again tonight even against the World Champion Warriors. ∗∗∗∗
