NEW ORLEANS, LA – APRIL 19: Jrue Holiday
NEW ORLEANS, LA – APRIL 19: Jrue Holiday /

High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,667

Jrue Holiday (vs WAS – $9,000): Needs 37.2 fantasy points. Holiday had 37.5 fantasy points against the Wizards on Nov. 24. Anthony Davis didn’t play in that game. Holiday is better with Davis in the lineup as it opens up more of his offense. His scoring numbers haven’t been there in recent games, but I expect that to change against the Wizards and their poor defense. Diagnosis: Holiday will make up for his previous performance against the Wizards with a big night.

Jimmy Butler (vs NY – $8,700): Needs 36 fantasy points. Butler was up to 62.4 fantasy points against the Knicks on Nov. 25. He’s still more the third option in Philadelphia who takes over late, but this is the Knicks on a back-to-back. If Butler starts rebounding the ball more, that’s very good news for his value. The points will typically be there. Diagnosis: Matchup is good and the Sixers are allowing teams to hang around.

Bradley Beal (at NO – $8,200): Needs 33.9 fantasy points. Beal has been over 38 fantasy points in four straight games. That includes a 47.2 fantasy point effort against the Pelicans on Nov. 24. He’ll get his points in this game and should do enough in other categories to have his usual strong game. I’m expecting a lot of big performances out of this game. Diagnosis: Numbers in all categories will be there.
