High Value SG
Andrew Wiggins, MIN at ATL ($6,500): The return of Jimmy Butler did not cut into the value of Wiggins on Saturday. He had 34 fantasy points in that contest. The Hawks are 22nd against the position in their last 15 games. Wiggins has been great since the end of December, missing value just four times in the last month. He was within two fantasy points of value in three of those four misses. Expect another strong performance from Wiggins on Monday as he provides plenty of points and a handful of rebounds. *****
Nicolas Batum, CHA at IND ($5,500): Batum has been hit-and-miss this season, hitting value in 53 percent of games this season. He was a miss on Saturday against the Heat, posting 19.3 fantasy points in that contest. He needs 23 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. He’s inconsistent, but at this salary, I do expect him to hit value. When he’s on his game, he’s a solid contributor in all offensive categories and can come up with a steal or two. ***
Wayne Ellington, MIN at DAL ($4,500): Ellington missed value against the Hornets, contributing just 19.9 fantasy points in that contest. His salary has dropped by $500 following that contest. He needs 18.8 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. He’s not quite the play in FanDuel that he is in DraftKings, but he should score enough points and come up with a handful of rebounds. He had 31.6 fantasy points against the Mavericks on Dec. 22. ****
