High Salary SF

Jimmy Butler, CHI at BOS ($10,000): Butler popped for 30 points, nine rebounds, three assists and two combined blocks/steals to lead the Bulls past the Celtics in Game 1. That was one of Butler’s best performances against the Celtics, who had success at suppressing him in the regular season. Even with Rajon Rondo and Dwyane Wade both starting, it was Butler that was the clear go-to guy on offense in the second half. ***

Gordon Hayward, UTA at LAC ($7300): Hayward scored 19 points with 10 rebounds, three assists and a steal in Game 1. While he was overshadowed by Joe Johnson’s heroics, Hayward is the Jazz’s best player with Rudy Gobert out and will be expected to carry a heavy load on Tuesday. ***

Khris Middleton, MIL at TOR ($5900): Middleton scored 10 points with nine assists, two boards and a steal in the Game 1 victor over the Raptors. His fantasy output of 27.9 fantasy points was almost the exact same as the last time he faced the Raptors last month, but last time his fantasy points came primarily from scoring and this time from assists. The versatility is great, and gives him upside, but as yet his expected value holds steady in that upper 20s/low 30s of fantasy points. ***
