High Salary SG

James Harden ($10,600): Harden had 49.75 fantasy points in Game 3, which is an off-night by his standards. There are some concerns about “Playoff Harden” showing up, but I’m not sold on that idea. I think it was more the Timberwolves stepping up to the challenge and don’t believe that’s quite sustainable, which I’ll get to later. Harden will be back over 50 fantasy points in Game 4. *****

Donovan Mitchell ($7,800): Mitchell continues to deliver in this series. The Jazz offense had it rolling in Game 3, and while the Thunder defense will likely be better in Game 4, they haven’t had an answer for Mitchell all series. He’ll have another big outing on Monday. *****

High Value SG

Andrew Wiggins ($5,800): Wiggins not only hit from deep in Game 3, but he turned into a playmaker with five assists. Can he do it again? I have my doubts, but even if Game 3 was an anomaly, he’s consistent enough to at least hit value and opportunities are never an issue for him. ****

Joe Ingles ($5,700): Ingles had the big game in Game 3, finishing with 34.75 fantasy points. He was able to get the open looks that he wasn’t getting in the first two games. He’s a different player at home and the salary is low enough to where he should have another solid outing on Monday. ***
