High Value SG

Players costing $6,667 or under

Buddy Hield (vs MIA – $6,500): Needs 28.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 29 fantasy points against Houston. Hield continues to shoot relatively shot and he’s been chipping in with rebounds. This is also a matchup he has dominated. He had 46.1 fantasy points against the Heat on Oct. 29 and is averaging 40.1 fantasy points in his last three games against the Heat. This simply appears to be his matchup. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Monte Morris (at PHI – $6,500): Needs 28.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34.5 fantasy points against Brooklyn. Morris has moved back to the bench but it hasn’t mattered as he continues to provide strong production. And minutes aren’t really an issue for him either. I like him off the bench, especially against this matchup with the Sixers possible depth issues if their new players aren’t in the lineup just yet. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Malcolm Brogdon (at DAL – $6,300): Needs 27.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 32.9 fantasy points against Washington. It’s another Buck because the Bucks are hot. I’ve been riding this squad a lot this season because either Giannis is going to put up big numbers or the guys around him are going to put up big numbers. And Brogdon has been one of the more reliable players alongside Giannis. He will deliver once again. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
