High Salary SF

Paul George, OKC vs POR ($8,300): George has been at value or better in eight of his last nine. Even when he’s not scoring, he’s found a way to make up that value with his rebounding and passing. The good news is that his scoring has been well up in recent weeks as the Thunder settled into a rhythm. He had 42 fantasy points against the Blazers on Nov. 5. He’s the second most reliable guy on the Thunder behind Westbrook and should be at value once again. ****

Brandon Ingram, LAL vs SAC ($7,000): Ingram has hit value in both games since Lonzo Ball has returned. The re-addition of Ball has certainly opened things up for Ingram and he’s taking advantage of the extra space. Ingram may not be the most consistent Laker, but he has gotten the most consistent playing time outside of Ball. That’s always good for a players value when they are able to do a bit of everything like Ingram. He should be around 30 fantasy points and then some on Tuesday. ****

Harrison Barnes, DAL vs ORL ($6,800): Barnes has been extremely reliable this season, hitting value in 76 percent of games. If this one is the shootout that it’s projected to be, Barnes will definitely do his part in scoring. He leads the Mavericks in scoring by a good margin this year. He should easily hit 30 fantasy points and he’ll likely push 35 fantasy points. *****
