Top Four SFs

  1. Carmelo Anthony (Knicks) – $8,500 vs. @ Suns (23rd)
  2. Giannis Antetokounmpo (Bucks) – $8,700 vs. Heat (26th)
  3. Chandler Parsons (Mavericks) – $6,400 vs. Pistons (5th)
  4. Jerami Grant (76ers) – $5,200 vs. Rockets (30th)

Rationale:

  • Anthony scored 53 fantasy points against the Suns in their first meeting. The Suns are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Anthony should be able to score at will and set teammates up with assists. He’s projected to score 44.4 fantasy points.
  • Antetokounmpo is scoring 38.0 FPPG in two meetings with the Heat this season. He’s scoring 57.2 FPPG in his last five games. He’s projected to score 38.7 fantasy points.
  • Parsons hasn’t played against the Pistons this season. He’s scoring 36.8 FPPG in his last six games due to his high-volume scoring. He’s projected to score 30.5 fantasy points.
  • Grant scored 28.3 fantasy points in his first game against the Rockets this season. He scored 18 points in that game and should be a factor on the boards and defensively. He’s projected to score 27.4 fantasy points.
