High Salary SF

Paul George, OKC at MEM ($9,500): George missed value against the Cavaliers on Tuesday, posting 38.8 fantasy points in that contest. The Thunder looked out of rhythm with Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony returning from injury. A game under their belt should have them looking slightly better on Wednesday. A matchup against the Grizzlies certainly helps. George had 56.2 fantasy points against Memphis on Sunday. They had no answer for him in that game and are unlikely to have an answer for him on Wednesday. He’ll be back over 40 fantasy points in this one. ****

Otto Porter Jr., WAS at NY ($7,400): Porter Jr. has been great in recent games, going over value in three straight and eight of his last nine. He had 29.3 fantasy points against the Knicks on Jan. 3. That number would put him under value on Wednesday, but the circumstances are much different in this contest with John Wall and Kristaps Porzingis missing. If Markieff Morris is out for the Wizards, that will mean even more scoring opportunities for the small forward. ****

Michael Beasley, NY vs WAS ($6,800): Beasley has been over value in all three games since starting for Kristaps Porzingis. That trend should continue on Wednesday as he’s up against the Wizards, who rank 18th against power forwards in their last 15 games. Beasley dropped 45.3 fantasy points in 25 minutes against the Wizards on Jan. 3. He’s going to play far more minutes in this contest. 45 fantasy points is a tough ask, but 35-plus fantasy points from the Knicks forward should not be a problem. *****
