High Salary SG

Khris Middleton-Milwaukee Bucks (6,900): Middleton has blossomed into one of the best breakout players of the season, and he continues to poor it on for Milwaukee.  He has at least 20 points in six of his last seven games and continues to add solid non-scoring stats in most games as well.  he has at least 30 fantasy points in six of his last seven games with four games over 37 fantasy points. He’ll take on Miami tonight in South Beach which isn’t usually a great matchup, but the Heat have been hit hard by injury lately which should allow Middleton, Antetokoumpo, and the other Bucks to find room to operate. ∗∗∗∗

Monta Ellis-Indiana Pacers (6,500): Ellis scored 25 points and added five assists for a total of 37 fantasy points on Sunday against the Nuggets and has at least 29 fantasy points in four of his last five games.  He played the point on Sunday against Denver with George Hill out, but he will likely slide back to SG tonight against Phoenix if Hill returns. Either way, it’s a great matchup for Ellis and he should be ready to attack the beleaguered defensive Suns backcourt.  Even if Hill returns, Ellis’s playing time will still be high for as long as Rodney Stuckey is sidelined. ∗∗∗∗

Will Barton-Denver Nuggets (6,100): Barton has 21 points, six boards, and three assists against the Pacers and has rediscovered his scoring groove.  He has scored 21 points in two of his last three games and usually adds solid rebounding and assists coming off the bench for Denver.  He is risky since he has had  a few down games lately, but he is an infusion of offense as the sixth-man in Denver and can be used for your fantasy team tonight against the Thunder. ∗∗
