DALLAS, TX – MARCH 24: Jeremy Lamb /

High Value SG

Players costing $6,667 or under

Jeremy Lamb (vs PHI – $6,500): Needs 27.1 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 38.3 fantasy points against Miami. Lamb has been moved to the bench in the last two games and it’s worked out well for him as he’s been over 37 fantasy points in both games. He had 38.5 fantasy points against the Sixers on Nov. 17, which is the last time these two teams met. He’s playing very well right now and with the Sixers down Embiid, he should be able to find a little bit more room. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Eric Gordon (at ATL – $5,500): Needs 22.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 20.4 fantasy points against Minnesota. With the Rockets having a healthy lineup, Gordon takes a backseat to Harden and Paul. But the good news is that they are up against the Hawks. And Harden and Paul should have to do a little less, especially Harden. That paves the way for Gordon to step up and do more. He’s at a great salary given this matchup. If nothing else, he should get you value. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Caris LeVert (at SAC – $5,200): Needs 21.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.3 fantasy points against LA Clippers. LeVert is back in the starting lineup and playing big minutes once again. He remains at a good salary if he is still going to be playing over 30 minutes a night. And it’s the Kings. You can almost always bet against the Kings. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.
