High Value SG

Eric Gordon, HOU vs PHO ($5,100): Gordon is averaging 24.5 fantasy points in two games against the Suns this season. He needs 21.5 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. He’s struggled with consistency this season, especially when both Harden and Paul are in the lineup. This is a good matchup and he has a real chance to hit 30 fantasy points. ****

Tony Snell, MIL at CHI ($3,900): If Malcolm Brogdon is out again, Snell should draw another start. He was disappointing against the Nets and has failed to crack 30 fantasy points in his last two games. As a starter, he sees plenty of opportunities and had 20.9 fantasy points against the Bulls on Dec. 26. He should be around that number on Sunday. ***

Buddy Hield, SAC at SA ($5,900): Hield has been over value in his last four games. The Spurs are a tough matchup, ranking sixth against the position in their last 15 games. He did have 38.1 fantasy points against the Spurs on Dec. 23. I don’t like the matchup, but Hield has a high usage rate on the Kings and will get opportunities to contribute. **

Danny Green, SA vs SAC ($4,800): Green needs 20.2 fantasy points to reach value on Sunday. There aren’t a ton of great shooting guard options in the late slate, but Green has a good matchup and is playing decent enough right now to where he should give you at least 20 fantasy points. There’s always a chance he gets hot from beyond the arc as well. ***
