High Salary SF

Kawhi Leonard, SA at MIN ($9400): Leonard owns Andrew Wiggins and the Timberwolves, averaging 33 points on 60% shooting from the field plus six boards, 4.7 assists and three steals in three games against them this season. Based on the evidence of those games, there’s no reason not to expect Leonard to play well again on Tuesday. *****

Jimmy Butler, CHI at TOR ($8900): Butler also seems to have stepped up his game since Dwyane Wade went down for the season. He has scored between 45.5 and 52.7 fantasy points in three of his last four games, with his one down game of 26.9 fantasy  points coming against an elite Grizzlies defense. The Raptors are tough on defense as well, having allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points to small forwards in the last 10 games, but they are beatable. ***

T.J. Warren, PHO at MIA ($6500): Warren has averaged 18.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.4 steals in his last five games. He is consistent with his production, and has been on the up-tick since Eric Bledsoe went down and left a scoring void on the team. He has a tough but winnable match-up on Tuesday against a Heat defense that has allowed the 13th-fewest fantasy points to small forwards in the last 10 games.
