High Salary SG

Giannis Antetokounmpo-Miwaukee Bucks (10,300): The Bucks take on Toronto tonight who won’t have DeMar DeRozan at SG. Antetokounmpo will try to take advantage of his absence and produce 42+ fantasy points for the fifth time in his last six games. He had a solid game against the Sixers for 17-12-5 and four steals for 44.9 fantasy points, but he has been held under 50 fantasy points in four straight making him a little high-risk due to his five-figure salary.∗∗

C.J. McCollum-Portland Trail Blazers (8,100): McCollum and the Blazers should be fresh after playing just twice in the past week. McCollum’s results have been good in those two games with 35-2-3 and 47.9 fantasy points last Saturday in Boston followed by 24-4-4 for 34.8 fantasy points against the Lakers on Wednesday. He’s in a tough matchup tonight against Memphis, but he has good potential for 40+ fantasy points.∗∗

Dwyane Wade-Chicago Bulls (7,900): Wade will take on his former team tonight in Chicago as the Heat come to town amid all the controversy surrounding the Bulls. In his last three games, Wade’s on-the-court numbers have been excellent with 30-6-4, four blocks, and four steals for 57.2 fantasy points followed by 21-7-3 for 46.9 fantasy points and 33-5-2 for 47 fantasy points. Despite all the drama, winning will cover a lot of issues, and Wade’s recent production indicates he’ll be a good play at this price.∗∗∗∗

Bradley Beal-Washington Wizards (7,100): Beal has at least 35 fantasy points in four of his last eight games and posted 31-2-5 with a pair of steals for 39.9 fantasy points on Tuesday against Boston. He should have a good run of production against Atlanta in an important Eastern Conference matchup.∗∗∗

Dion Waiters-Miami Heat (6,200): Waiters rolls into Chicago tonight to face D-Wade and the Bulls on a great run of production. He has at least 24 points and 40 fantasy points in three straight, and he’ll continue to get plenty of minutes and chances while Josh Richardson, Tyler Johnson, and Justise Winslow are all out.∗∗∗∗
