High Salary SG

James Harden-Houston Rockets (11,500): Harden is averaging a cool 53.5 fantasy points per game so far this season and posted 56.4 fantasy points against Portland on Sunday on 38-2-10 with two steals and a block. He has at least 50 fantasy points in 12 of his last 14 games, and he should be able to get that many tonight even in what would be a tough matchup in Utah for anyone not James Harden. Utah is allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing SG, but Harden usually scoffs at stats like that and hangs a big number anyway.

Giannis Antetokounmpo-Milwaukee Bucks (10,000): Harden has company at five-figures from “The Alphabet” who will be tangling with LeBron James and the Cavs. Antetokounmpo had posted over 50 fantasy points in four of his previous six games before a letdown in Orlando on Sunday when he only had 36.8 fantasy points on 18-9-4. He should be well-rested since the Bucks have only played twice in the last week, and he usually rises to the occasion when he gets to go head-to-head with a marquee name like LeBron. Last year, he averaged 23.8 points, 9.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 1.0 blocks per game against the Cavs with two of those meetings coming towards the end of the season. He’s a nice play tonight with plenty of upside although his track record isn’t quite as proven as Harden’s as an elite-level option.
