High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,250

Steph Curry (at MIN – $8,900): Needs 42.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 61 fantasy points against Memphis. You typically know what you’re getting from Curry and you always know what you’re getting from Curry against the Timberwolves. He’s averaging 57.4 fantasy points in three games against Minnesota this season, including 54.25 fantasy points against them on Mar. 19. This is his matchup and always has been. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Donovan Mitchell (vs WAS – $8,000): Needs 38.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 21.5 fantasy points against LA Lakers. Mitchell has been down in a big way in the last two games and this matchup is another matchup where he might not be needed as much. But the ceiling remains high and your shooting guard options are just limited on Friday. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.

Klay Thompson (at MIN – $6,700): Needs 31.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 18.75 fantasy points against Memphis. Thompson missed shots against the Grizzlies and when he misses shots, he’s not all that valuable. But he hasn’t missed too often against the Grizzlies this season as he’s averaging 35.3 fantasy points in three games, including a 42.25 fantasy points effort on Mar. 19. He should be back in form in this one. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
