High Salary SG

James Harden, HOU vs NO ($11,700): Harden is listed as probable, so I’ll assume that he’s going to play on Saturday. Check his status before making any final decisions. Assuming he plays and Chris Paul doesn’t, he should be in for a big night. He was disappointing against the Pistons, collecting on 45 fantasy points, but this is a much better matchup. He had 64.25 fantasy points against the Pelicans a week ago. Given the Pelicans lack of three-point defense, expect Harden to push 60 fantasy points once again. *****

Tyreke Evans, MEM vs LAL ($7,900): It was a rough night for the Grizzlies on Thursday, but Evans still put himself around value, finishing with 32.25 fantasy points. The return of Marc Gasol should have the Grizzlies looking more competitive on Saturday, but they are the worst team in the league for a reason. Still, Evans has been a bright spot for them. He’s been over 45 fantasy points in two games against the Lakers this season and should end up around that number on Saturday. ****

Jeremy Lamb, CHA at DAL ($6,300): Lamb had 33.75 fantasy points against the Grizzlies on Thursday, continuing his strong play as a starter. Once again, as long as he starts, you can expect at least 30 fantasy points from him. He’s been very consistent alongside Kemba Walker in the starters role all season and there is no reason to think he’ll slow down now. He needs 27.6 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. ****
