High Value SF

Players costing $6,250 or under

Justise Winslow (vs BOS – $5,900): Needs 27.1 fantasy points. Winslow’s salary has dropped, which is good news for you. He had 28.5 fantasy points against the Nuggets on Jan. 8. His minutes were down in that game, which is slightly concerning. He’s been playing well as the point forward and has shown a high ceiling. The Celtics are on a back-to-back, which should help his cause. Diagnosis: Reliable at this salary and a good ceiling.

Josh Richardson (vs BOS – $5,800): Needs 26.5 fantasy points. And if you want to save $100 and get someone who will get more guaranteed minutes, Richardson is your options. He hasn’t put up the numbers that Winslow has in recent games, but he never lacks for opportunities. You can always pair the two and get solid value out of the duo. Diagnosis: Reliable and more guaranteed minutes, but maybe a slightly lower ceiling than Winslow.

Justin Jackson (vs DET – $4,100): Needs 18.7 fantasy points. Justin has been playing well during this recent stretch, going over 20 fantasy points in three straight and over 25 fantasy points in two of his last three. He’s getting minutes right now and making the most of them. The matchup is good and he’s a nice salary saver who is hot. Diagnosis: Red hot and a lot of positive signs. But hasn’t proven much with consistency.
