High Value SG

J.R. Smith-Cleveland Cavaliers (4,700): Smith only played 27 minutes in Game 1, but he was rested with the rest of the starters in the rout.  He totaled 15.9 fantasy points on five points, three assists, two steals, and two rebounds.  If he gets more involved in the scoring early or is forced to play more in Game 2, he’s still a solid mid-range play at SG, but he is volatile since he sometimes takes a back seat on offense while the “Big Three” lead the way in blowouts. 

Iman Shumpert-Cleveland Cavaliers (3,600): Shump has become an important piece of the Cavs’ suddenly-solid second unit and has played at least 15 minutes in each of Cleveland’s last five playoff wins.  He has at least 13 fantasy points in each of his last four games including 15.6 fantasy points in Game 1 when he played 22 minutes and had eight points, three rebounds, two assists, and a steal. 

Andre Roberson-Oklahoma City Thunder (3,500): Roberson came back to earth a bit after a good Game 6 against the Spurs and Game 1 against the Warriors.  He had 29.9 and 18.5 fantasy points in those two contests but only played 15 minutes and had just 9.6 fantasy points in Game 2. He’s still worth a look as a cheap play since he does get time with the starting unit and remains one of the Thunder’s best perimeter defenders, but he is high-risk since his production comes and goes.
