High Value SG

Buddy Hield, SAC at SA ($5,700): Hield has been over 30 fantasy points in three of his last four games. The Spurs are eighth against the position in their last 15 games. The matchup is tough, but Hield gets plenty of opportunities off the Kings bench. He’s posting a 30.4 percent usage rate in his last five games. He needs 23.9 fantasy points to reach value on Monday. The Kings may not win, but Hield will get his scoring numbers to go along with a handful of assists and rebounds. ***

Sean Kilpatrick, CHI at BKN ($5,300): The Nets are first against the position in their last 15 games, but that didn’t stop Kilpatrick from contributing 27.3 fantasy points against them on Saturday. He’s playing decent minutes off the Chicago bench and continues to look impressive late in the season. The Nets may do well against fantasy shooting guards, but their overall defense leave much to be desired. ***

Luke Kennard, DET vs TOR ($4,200): Kennard had 33.6 fantasy points against the Grizzlies on Sunday. After a hot stretch in the middle of March, he’s cooled off in April. That said, he’s still getting playing time and opportunities to contribute. The Raptors are on a back-to-back and will likely rest guys who didn’t end up resting on Sunday. He should be around 20 fantasy points in this one. ***
