High Value SG

Players costing $6,667 or under

Khris Middleton (at DET – $6,600): Needs 28.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 36.8 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Middleton is at a nice salary given his usual production and I love the Bucks on Tuesday. They didn’t play their best game against the Thunder and they will look to bounce back in a big way given how they’ve played all season. And the Pistons are a great matchup because the Pistons are just not a good team. Middleton will deliver once again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Terrence Ross (vs OKC – $5,600): Needs 23.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 27.2 fantasy points against Houston. Ross continues to stay hot and remember what I said before about weird things happening in this game? Terrence Ross having a career shooting night would be a weird thing. But also an expected thing given it’s OKC in Orlando. Given how Ross has been playing, don’t rule it out. If nothing else, Ross should get you value. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Alec Burks (vs WAS – $5,100): Needs 21.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.6 fantasy points against Chicago. Burks continues to play well for the Cavaliers and I’ll continue to trust him. As well as the Wizards have played without Wall, their defense is still not great and Burks has turned into a reliable option for the Cavaliers given his ability to do a bit of everything. He should get you at least value at a good cost. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
