High Salary Guards

Players costing over $12,000

Kyle Lowry (at MIL – $12,500): Needs 50 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 23.8 fantasy points against Milwaukee. Lowry dropped off in Game 2, which was to be expected given how good he was in Game 1. The Raptors are back at home and he has been a reliable option throughout the playoffs. Expect him to pick it back up and bounce back. He’s a solid #3 option. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Khris Middleton (vs TOR – $11,500): Needs 45.8 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 14.7 fantasy points against Toronto. It was a rough Game 2 for Middleton as his shot wasn’t falling and he wasn’t doing much of anything else. Don’t be too concerned about him. He’s proven that he can step up on the road and he will definitely need to step up on the road because I don’t trust Milwaukee to shoot quite as well. Like Lowry, expect a bounce back performance in this one. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling

Eric Bledsoe (vs TOR – $10,500): Needs 24.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 24.5 fantasy points against Toronto. Bledsoe has a nice all-around game in Game 2 and that made him fairly worthwhile. I don’t trust him quite as much on the road because the scoring hasn’t been there and I don’t think Milwaukee’s offense will be quite as good. But he still has a good ceiling because of his all-around game. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.
