Top Four SFs

  1. Gordon Hayward (Jazz) – $7,500 vs. Timberwolves (19th)
  2. Chandler Parsons (Mavericks) – $6,700 vs. Nets (12th)
  3. Tobias Harris (Magic) – $6,300 @ Celtics (23rd)
  4. Trevor Ariza (Rockets) – $5,500 @ Thunder (7th)

Rationale:

  • Hayward is the go-to scorer for the Jazz and that’s different from his 29.3-fantasy point performance previously against the Timberwolves. He is getting more shots now and is consistently returning value in nine of his last 10 games.
  • Parsons scored 33.8 fantasy points in his first game against the Nets, before he got hot. His hot streak is an added bonus to draft him. He’s scoring 39.7 FPPG in his last six games.
  • Harris is more athletic than his counterpart, Jae Crowder. He also dropped 36.3 fantasy points on him in their first meeting. Harris has had some inconsistencies, but he has a favorable matchup with recent success.
  • Ariza shoots nearly seven percentage points better on the road than at home. He’s also played very well, except for a dud performance against the Spurs. He’s scoring 37 FPPG in his last four games, including a sub-20 fantasy point performance against the Spurs.
