High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,667

Victor Oladipo (vs MIA – $9,900): Needs 41.2 fantasy points. Oladipo has been over 47 fantasy points in his last three games. He had 54 fantasy points against the Het on Nov. 9. The Pacers have had a few days off and should be ready to go for this one. Oladipo is a high ceiling guy and the star of the show in Indiana, without a real serviceable co-star. He should produce in multiple categories. Diagnosis: Playing well, good matchup, and shows up in many categories.

Jrue Holiday (vs NY – $8,800): Needs 36.7 fantasy points. Holiday was down to 33.8 fantasy points against the Timberwolves. The scoring wasn’t there, but he remains the primary playmaker with Payton out. Trust him to bounce back given the matchup on Friday. Points should come easy for Holiday against the poor Knicks defense. Diagnosis: The only concern is a blowout. But he’ll produce even in limited minutes.

Andrew Wiggins (vs POR – $6,900): Needs 28.7 fantasy points. Wiggins had 46.2 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Nov. 14. He typically produces, even when Jimmy Butler was there. And now his ceiling is higher with Butler gone. The Blazers can be a tough matchup, but when it comes to perimeter scoring, this is Wiggins’ team right now. Especially if Derrick Rose misses another game. Diagnosis: High ceiling and high usage rate. Take with confidence if Rose doesn’t play.
