High Salary SG

James Harden-Houston Rockets (10,400): Harden has been doing it all as he tries to carry Houston into the playoffs single-handedly if necessary. He had another big game on Sunday scoring 34 points against the Pacers to go with eight rebounds and eight assists for 57.5 fantasy points. In his previous three games before that contest, he had racked up at least 64 fantasy points including a huge triple-double against the Raptors last Friday.  Harden has been on such a roll that it’s hard to pass him by no matter what the price especially since he’s playing over 40 minutes a night and is the focus of every offensive possession for the Rockets. 

Nicolas Batum-Charlotte Hornets (7,400): Batum had a huge game agains the Bucks on Saturday with 25 points, eight assists, and seven rebounds powering him to 50.25 fantasy points. He has at least 30 fantasy points in nine of his last ten games with six games of at least 40 fantasy points. He is in a great matchup tonight against the Sixers, but he could play reduced minutes if the game turns ugly early. 

Klay Thompson-Golden State Warriors (7,100): Last time the Warrios played the Wizards, Klay had good seats to watch Wall and Curry go head-to-head but stayed mostly out of the action finishing with “just” 24 points and four rebounds.  He has been on fire lately with at least 45 fantasy points in three straight contests powered mostly by his back-to-back games of 40 points in his last two contests. His non-scoring numbers haven’t been great, but it’s a good matchup for him tonight against Washington, and I think he’ll keep it rolling enough to be work a look at this price. ∗∗
