Top Four SGs

  1. Dwyane Wade (Heat) – $7,100 @ Hawks (16th)
  2. Khris Middleton (Bucks) – $7,200 vs. Hornets (27th)
  3. Nicolas Batum (Hornets) – $7,400 @ Bucks (20th)
  4. Devin Booker (Suns) – $6,300 vs. Rockets (25th)

Rationale:

  • Wade is scoring 29.6 FPPG in three meetings with the Hawks this season. He’s shot 37.2 percent from the field in those three games, which is eight percentage points worse than his season average. He’s projected to score 42.8 fantasy points.
  • Middleton is scoring 36.2 FPPG in two games against the Hornets this season. He’s channeled his inner-scorer in the season series, averaging nearly four points per game better against Charlotte than his season average. He’s projected to score 35.3 fantasy points.
  • Batum is scoring 28.3 FPPG in two games against the Bucks this season. He’s only shooting 26.1 from the field against the Bucks. That should improve as he is projected to score 38.4 fantasy points.
  • Booker scored 27.3 fantasy points against the Rockets earlier this season. He’s only shooting 25 percent from the field against Houston, but has gotten to the free throw line where he shot 90 percent. He’s projected to score 26.1 fantasy points.
