High Value SG

Marco Belinelli-Sacramento Kings (5,100): Omri Casspi’s expected return makes Belinelli a little more high-risk than Garrett Temple (next on this list), but he has more upside and has been playing very well lately for the Kings.  He has six straight games with double-digit scoring and has at least 27 fantasy points in three of those six games with at least 19 fantasy points in all six.  He’s in a great matchup against the Pelicans tonight who allow the most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing SG, so he should be a productive option as long as his time isn’t cut too drastically from his 32+ minutes he has been playing. ∗∗∗∗

Garrett Temple-Washington Wizards (4,600): Temple is less well-known than Belinelli, but has been able to put up similar production lately since he has been starting for Washington in place of Brad Beal.  Temple has at least 19 fantasy points in five of his last six games with double-digit scoring in each of those five games.  He and the Wizards face the Bucks tonight, and Temple is a solid play even though he doesn’t have a super-high ceiling. ∗∗∗

Gerald Green-Miami Heat (4,400): Green has been a regularly recurring character in my DraftKings daily picks lately and has at least 23 fantasy points in five of his last seven games including all three on Miami’s current road trip.  He has at least 13 points in each of the three games on the trip with solid non-scoring stats as well as he plays the role of Miami’s sixth-man who is getting 34 minutes per game in each of those three contests. I don’t love the matchup against the Clippers, but I do think he’ll produce again tonight and is a bargain at this salary. ∗∗
