High Salary SG

James Harden-Houston Rockets (10,600): As stacked as PG is at the top with lots of productive options, the top of the SG pool is extremely thin with only four options over 6K.  Harden is the most expensive SG and only Steph Cury costs more than “The Beard” at any position.  Harden has been red hot lately with over 50 fantasy points in four straight games. He would be a much better pick if it wasn’t for one thing–Kawhi. The Spurs SF has given Harden a hard time whenever the two have met in the past which makes Harden much higher risk than usual in that tough matchup tonight.

Andrew Wiggins-Minnesota Timberwolves (6,800): Wiggins has at least 26 fantasy points in ten straight games and put up 30 fantasy points or more in his two games earlier this month against OKC.  He had 25 points and 32.1 fantasy points in 40 minutes in their most recent meeting and 22 points and 30 minutes in their earlier matchup.  Wiggins is usually good for at least 20 points per contest, but his fantasy value fluctuates based on his non-scoring stats between 26 and 36 on most nights.
