High Salary SG

J.R. Smith-Cleveland Cavaliers (5,300): Smith is the highest salaried SG on the board tonight even though he’s relatively affordable at just over5K.  He lit the world on fire in Game 2 with 23 points in 28 minutes and 33 fantasy points. His three-point shooting proved to be contagious and the whole Cavs team caught fire from long distance. He had 26.75 fantasy points in Game 1 as well and has at least 21 fantasy points in five of his six playoff contests and continually gets good minutes with the Cavs starters.  He probably won’t make it rain like he did in Game 2, but he’s still a solid pick to produce tonight. ∗∗∗

Kyle Korver-Atlanta Hawks (4,400): Korver was held under ten fantasy points in each of the first two games of the series, but he’ll home to return to his Round 1 form tonight as the series shifts back to Atlanta.  Korver scored at least ten points in each of the last five games against Boston but only managed ten points total in the first two games in Cleveland.  He’s a high-risk play at under 4K, but he should get playing time so the opportunity is there. ∗
