High Salary SF

Will Barton, DEN at MIN ($7,300): Gary Harris returned to the lineup on Monday, but his minutes were limited. Unless Harris is comfortable pushing himself in what could be the final game of the season for Denver, Barton remains the much stronger play. But if you think Harris will play around 30 minutes, he could be a strong value play. As for Barton, you know he’s going to play nearly 40 minutes and given his level of play in recent games, he’s a good bet to give you around 35 fantasy points. ****

Khris Middleton, MIL at PHI ($8,400): Bucks are in an odd spot. Win and get sixth, setting up a matchup with the Sixers or Cavaliers. Or lose and potentially get seventh and face the banged up Celtics. With so many factors in play, it’s tough to know the mindset of the team. What we do know is that Middleton has been fantastic for over a month now and if the Bucks play hard, he’ll likely be around 40 fantasy points. And if Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn’t play, his value goes up. ***

Michael Beasley, NY at CLE ($6,400): Last game of the season, which means it’s Beasley’s time to shine. He had 36 fantasy points against the Cavaliers on Monday. You don’t have to worry about Beasley playing hard in a meaningless game where he wants to showcase himself for next season. Beasley will get his points and rebounds, likely going over 30 fantasy points once again. ****
