High Salary SG

Victor Oladipo, IND vs MIL ($9,500): Oladipo had 53.9 fantasy points against the Wizards on Sunday. Both teams are on a back-to-back, but the Pacers are at home. Oladipo has missed value just once since the break. He had 42.4 fantasy points against the Bucks last week and needs 39.7 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. He’s been a strong play all season and has raised his game, even more, heading into the home stretch. 40-plus fantasy points are attainable for the Indiana All-Star. ****

Donovan Mitchell, UTA vs ORL ($7,900): The Magic are 27th against the position in their last 15 games. Mitchell has been over value in three of his last four. The Jazz are in the Western Conference dogfight right now and Mitchell has the talent to lift the team. Meanwhile, the Magic give up a lot of points and are only playing for pride. Mitchell needs 33 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. He should push 40 fantasy points in this one, putting up a strong scoring night to go along with rebounds and assists. ****

Khris Middleton, MIL at IND ($7,100): Middleton struggled against the Sixers on Sunday, posting 26.7 fantasy points in that contest. He played only 35 minutes, so maybe he’ll have his legs under him more than Antetokounmpo and Bledsoe on Monday. He had 45 fantasy points against the Pacers last week and is averaging 36.9 fantasy points in three games against Indiana this season. He needs 29.6 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. Expect him to be over 30 fantasy points in this one. ****
