High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,250

Bradley Beal (at BKN – $8,900): Needs 41.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 52.25 fantasy points against Indiana. You just know what you’re getting from Beal. He’s been reliable all season with Wall out of the lineup and the matchup doesn’t seem to matter. And given that he’s playing in the East, the matchup is good on most nights. He’s at a lesser salary than usual, which certainly helps. You can always build around Beal with confidence. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Jrue Holiday (at LAL – $7,600): Needs 36 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46.25 fantasy points against Philadelphia.It’s Holiday against the Lakers, which means Holiday is going to show out. He had 49.25 fantasy points against them on Feb. 23. If Davis plays, that probably lessens his value but something tells me the Pelicans will once again hold Davis out of this game because they don’t want anymore tampering going on. I also like Lou Williams in this spot if you’re looking to save a little bit of money. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Brandon Ingram (vs NO – $6,400): Needs 30.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 49.5 fantasy points against Memphis. Ingram is enjoying the best stretch of his career and the Lakers are still losing. Can we get Brandon Ingram some help? Keep taking him while he’s on this run. It’s shown that he’ll cool off at some point but I like his game right now and the matchup is good because the Pelicans haven’t played defense all season. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
