High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,250

DeMar DeRozan(at DAL – $8,400): Needs 39.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 47.5 fantasy points against Milwaukee. DeRozan put in a strong performance against the Bucks because he’s always good against the Bucks. The Mavericks can be a tougher matchup at home but the Spurs are still fighting for playoff position and DeRozan will continue to step up coming into the playoffs. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

CJ McCollum (at LAC – $6,600): Needs 31.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.25 fantasy points against Phoenix. McCollum has been rolling as of late and much like with Lillard, this is a good matchup that will push him. The game will be competitive and I like the way McCollum is playing right now. Trust him to keep this run going. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Jamal Murray (vs MIN – $6,300): Needs 29.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 16 fantasy points against Golden State. Murray was down against the Warriors because the Warriors decided to try. The Timberwolves can decide to try and still not perform well because they aren’t a good team. The Nuggets should come out with some fire in this game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
