Bogdan Bogdanovic
SACRAMENTO, CA – DECEMBER 27: Bogdan Bogdanovic /

High Value SG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Bogdan Bogdanovic (at PHO – $5,800): Needs 25.9 fantasy points. Bogdanovic was at 35.5 fantasy points against the Pacers on Dec. 1. He’s been great since returning from injury, providing scoring and assists. His ceiling is high. And it’s the Suns. It’s the friggin’ Suns. The Kings will put up plenty of points in this game and Bogdanovic will have a big role in that. Diagnosis: Reliable, high ceiling, it’s the Suns.

Bojan Bogdanovic (vs CHI – $5,600): Needs 25 fantasy points. The other Bogdanovic was at 34.25 fantasy points against the Kings on Dec. 1. With Oladipo out of the lineup, Bogdanovic will continue to have to do more. And he’s proven that he can step up in this role. The Bulls are a good matchup, although I still believe they’ll get the “fired coach” boost. I still trust Bogdanovic at this salary. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good matchup and ceiling.

JJ Barea (vs POR – $5,100): Needs 23.1 fantasy points. After a rough game against the Lakers, Barea bounced back with 35.25 fantasy points against the Clippers. No Doncic certainly boosted his value, but he was putting up great numbers coming off the bench even with Doncic in the lineup. Doncic is expected back, but Barea will continue to get good playing time and opportunities. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
