Best Bargains

Vince Carter ($3,300) is the best bargain on Wednesday night. Since the All-Star break he has played 21 or more minutes a game, and is scoring 19-plus fantasy points in that span. That includes two games of 25 fantasy points or more. He’s projected to score 24.8 fantasy points against the Lakers.

Jerami Grant ($4,400) is scoring 28.3 FPPG in his two games against the Pistons this season. In their last meeting, he scored 21 points and pulled down eight rebounds. He scored 41.5 fantasy points that night and was the lone bright spot for the 76ers in that game. He’s projected to score 20.1 fantasy points.

Players To Sit

Stephen Curry ($10,500) scored 46 fantasy points against the Heat in their first meeting this season. In three games since the All-Star break, Curry has only hit his average once, including two sub-50 fantasy points performances. He’s only projected to score 42.6 fantasy points against the Heat.

Hassan Whiteside ($7,600) did not play against the Warriors in the first game this season. He has picked up the slack since Bosh’s injury, scoring 56-plus fantasy points in two games since the All-Star break. However, he is only projected to score 31.2 fantasy points against the defending champions.
