High Salary SG

J.R. Smith-Cleveland Cavaliers (5,000): Smith is the highest salaried SG on the board tonight even though he’s relatively affordable at just 5K.  He lit the world on fire in Game 2 with 23 points in 28 minutes and 29.4 fantasy points. His three-point shooting proved to be contagious and the whole Cavs team caught fire from long distance. He had 24.5 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. 

Danny Green-San Antonio Spurs (4,100): Green struggled from the field shooting just 3-11 in Game 2 and managing only nine points. He did still have four steals to help him get to 19.9 fantasy points, but he fell short of the massive 31.3 fantasy points in head in Game 1.  Green is a key part of the Spurs’ rotation and will keep getting time and opportunity tonight in a mismatch against the Thunder.  Since I think his shooting is going to improve, I actually while him better as a point-per-dollar option than Smith tonight.
