High Value SG
J.R. Smith-Cleveland Cavaliers (4,600): Smith had his best game of the series in Game 3 scoring 22 points in 37 minutes and adding five rebounds and a steal for a total of 30 fantasy points. It was his highest fantasy production of the playoffs, but much of his success came because Kyrie Irving could not get going offensively. I wouldn’t expect a repeat of this kind of scoring in Game 4, but he’s still the best mid-range play at SG mostly because he logs a ton of minutes with the Cavs’ starting unit and does get the opportunity to put together good games like this one.∗∗∗
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 of this series which seems like it happened about a month ago. 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 also high-risk since his production comes and goes. ∗∗
Iman Shumpert-Cleveland Cavaliers (3,500): Shumpert played over 20 minutes off the bench again in Game 3 and finished with 11.8 fantasy points. He isn’t getting a ton of production but the playing time is there and he has been able to get into double-digit fantasy points in five of his last six. Shumpert is a lot like Roberson in that scoring isn’t their primary focus but their non-scoring stats can sometimes combine with a few made shots to produce good numbers. Both Roberson and Shumpert are high-risk at the minimum, but I’d lean toward Shump over Roberson just because he is getting really nice run with Cleveland’s second unit.∗∗
