High Salary SG

Players costing over $6,667

Donovan Mitchell (vs SAC – $9,700): Needs 40.9 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 43 fantasy points against Phoenix. Mitchell has been over 43 fantasy points in his last three games. The Kings are on a back-to-back, which should certainly help Mitchell’s cause. The Kings style also just lends itself to fantasy points. Expect Mitchell to stay hot in this matchup. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Andrew Wiggins (vs MIA – $7,200): Needs 30.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 38.1 fantasy points against Dallas. With Devin Booker out for the year, Andrew Wiggins will take his spot as the greatest player in meaningless games. He doesn’t seem to have the ceiling that Booker does, but he’s been great during this stretch and getting it done with more than just his scoring. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Delon Wright (at DAL – $7,000): Needs 29.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 31.8 fantasy points against Portland. Wright continues to play excellent for the Grizzlies because someone has to get these numbers for them, especially with Mike Conley being pretty much done for the year. The Mavericks are a good matchup because the defense likely won’t be there and Wright will carry the Grizzlies offense. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
