High Value SG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Malcolm Brogdon (at DAL – $5,600): Needs 26.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 33 fantasy points against Washington. Khris Middleton looks like he is going to be out in this game which means good things for Brogdon’s value. The Bucks are rolling right now and I love everything about the way they play basketball when it comes to DFS. They spread around the love and this should be an easy game given the state of the Mavericks and their defense. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Kenrich Williams (vs MIN – $5,000): Needs 22.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 28.75 fantasy points against Chicago. Anthony Davis is supposed to be back in this game so Williams may move to the bench. But he’s earned his playing time over the last few games and with Mirotic gone he should get that playing time. But it’s not quite a guarantee so proceed with some caution. The matchup is good with Minnesota being on a back-to-back and generally not being good. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Joe Harris (vs CHI – $4,600): Needs 21 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 29.25 fantasy points against Denver. LeVert is back in the lineup but I don’t think that’s going to cut into Harris. At least not that this salary and not this early in LeVert’s comeback. Harris will continue to get the minutes and shots. And going up against the Bulls, he should have a pretty each go with things. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
