High Value SG

Marcus Smart, BOS vs CHI ($5900): Smart comes off the bench, but has played at least 30.1 minutes in four of the last five games. He has scored between Saturday’s 20.4 fantasy points and 27.4 fantasy points in four of those games, with the exception as a 48.3 fantasy point effort almost two weeks ago. His upside is limited, as long as both Isaiah Thomas and Avery Bradley are in the line-up. **

Avery Bradley, BOS vs CHI ($5700): Bradley got off to a fast start in Game 1, with both he and Isaiah Thomas knocking down shots early to carry the Celtics out of the gate. Bradley slowed down after his initial barrage, though, ending up with only 14 points, two rebounds, two assists and three steals in 35 minutes. Bradley has done  better against the Bulls in the past, scoring 17 points with six boards and three steals in their meeting about a month ago, so he has bounce-back potential in Game 2. **

Rodney Hood, UTA at LAC ($3900): Hood has battled injuries, and settled in as a tertiary scorer that doesn’t contribute in many other categories. However, with Rudy Gobert out, the Jazz could use more offense and Hood is capable of helping out there. On the whole, though, his expected value is in the mid-to-upper teens. *
