High Value SG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Kelly Oubre Jr (at SA – $5,700): Needs 25.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 30.25 fantasy points against LA Lakers. I continue to love Oubre’s game and you should continue to add him to your DFS team. He keeps delivering and the minutes will be there as long as Warren remains sidelined. The Spurs can be a tough matchup because they are the Spurs but Oubre’s energy just wills him to plenty of fantasy points. He’ll get it done again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Terrence Ross (vs OKC – $5,500): Needs 23.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.5 fantasy points against Houston. Ross continues to shoot hot and until I see that drop off for a sustained period of time, I’m going to keep trusting him. The Thunder are rolling right now but this is a game where weird things happen and the Magic will keep this one competitive. And Ross will probably have a big game. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Eric Gordon (vs NO – $5,000): Needs 22.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.25 fantasy points against Orlando. With Paul back in the lineup, Gordon’s value takes a bit of a hit but he’s at a good salary, remains in the starting lineup and gets plenty of minutes. And he always seems to bring a little extra something against the Pelicans. And with the current state of the Pelicans, this one might get ugly. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a decent ceiling.
