High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,667

Bradley Beal (vs DAL – $10,500): Needs 45 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 53.4 fantasy points against Minnesota. Beal’s salary keeps climbing but it’s still not quite high enough to deter me. Have you seen the way this guy has been playing this season? And now he gets a great matchup against the Mavericks, who have no interest in really playing basketball for the rest of the season. Beal will keep it going without a doubt. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Devin Booker (vs NY – $8,600): Needs 36.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37.5 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Booker’s scoring as tailed off a bit as he does more with his playmaking, but whether he’s scoring or setting up scores, you can always beat against the Knicks. Booker should do enough to get you value in this one, but given the matchup, expect more. And the Suns aren’t exactly good enough to blow any team out. You can spend a tad more and go with the always reliable Jrue Holiday as well. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Buddy Hield (vs BOS – $8,000): Needs 34.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 52.7 fantasy points against New York. Hey look, it’s a guard who dominated the Knicks. The Celtics are on a back-to-back and the Kings are a desperate squad as they try to make a playoff push. The pace of the Kings might be tough for the Celtics on a back-to-back, especially if they are already mentally drained with everything going on. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
