High Salary SG

James Harden-Houston Rockets (11,700): If you are going to spend big on one player at any position tonight, Harden is the player to invest in. He’s in a great matchup against the Hawks who haven’t been able to defend opposing PG at all this season. Harden is playing PG but is still eligible at SG on FanDuel giving you more flexibility. Harden has posted 72.9 and 60.7 fantasy points in his two games on the Rockets current road trip and he should get you at least 60 fantasy points tonight making him worth the salary investment tonight.∗∗∗∗

Giannis Antetokounmpo-Milwaukee Bucks (9,900): Antetokounmpo is in a great matchup tonight against Ty Lawson and the Kings. Even under their new head coach Dave Joerger, defense is still mostly optional which should lead to another big statistical game for “The Alphabet.” On Thursday, he posted his second straight game wth over 50 fantasy points by putting together 27 points, nine assists, seven rebounds, two blocks, and two steals against the Pacers for 52.9 fantasy points. He can contribute in every meaningful category and should be able to get over 50 fantasy points again tonight making him a very nice play at under 10K.∗∗∗∗

Evan Fournier-Orlando Magic (6,000): Fournier had his best scoring output of the season on Thursday against the Kings dropping 29 points to go with just a rebound and an assist. He usually produces a little bit more in non-scoring  categories, but scoring his definitely his main contributions. He has been able to string together three games of 28+ fantasy points and if you can’t afford to go huge with Harden or Antetokounmpo, he’d be my other choice for a SG over 6K.∗∗∗
