High Salary SG

Nicolas Batum-Charlotte Hornets (7,100): Batum and all the Hornets had bad games against the Warriors when they faced Golden State on Wednesday on the second night of their back-to-back. Before posting just 27.5 fantasy points in 24 minutes in that blowout loss, though, Batum had 32+ fantasy points in four straight and five of his last six. Batum is usually a source of pretty good balance like when he had 15-11-9 for 38.7 fantasy points against the Knicks last week. Tonight, he and the Hornets are in Utah which is a tough matchup for SG, but Batum is still worth a look.∗∗

Devin Booker-Phoenix Suns (6,900): Booker kept right on rolling last night against the Kings hitting the game-winning shot and scoring 20+ points for the 15th straight game. Booker had 33 points last night while logging 41 minutes. He ended up with 33-2-2 for 43.4 fantasy points and has at least 29 fantasy points in nine straight and 12 of his last 13. Because its the second night of a back-to-back, there is little risk involved but I’ not too worries because he’s in a good matchup against the Bucks who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing SG this season.∗∗∗∗

Klay Thompson-Golden State Warriors (6,700): Thompson had 30.4 fantasy points against the Clippers on Thursday on 21-7-2. He now has at least 29 fantasy points in five of his last six games and is definitely finding ways to get involved for the Warriors. Since the Kings are stretched so thin at SG, Thompson should be ready for a big game tonight if the Warriors need him to produce. He’s a risky play with a high ceiling in his current situation in Golden State since he as to share the ball so well with Curry and Durant while still finding his own spots to contribute.∗∗
