Top 4 Shooting Guards

  1. Bradley Beal ($9,500) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
  2. Lou Williams ($7,000) vs. Golden State Warriors
  3. Klay Thompson ($6,400) vs. L.A. Clippers
  4. Jordan Clarkson ($5,500) vs. Washington Wizards

Rationale:

  • Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal closed out the first half of the season playing excellent basketball. During the past 10 games, Beal solidified his All-Star selection by averaging 23.7 points, 6.5 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game in the absence of John Wall. Beal is coming off a 36-point effort against the New York Knicks, marking the seventh time this season he has scored 35 or more points.
  • The biggest All-Star snub in 2018, Lou Williams, will continue to have plenty of scoring opportunities for the L.A. Clippers. In his first season with the Clippers, Williams is averaging a team-high 23.2 points per game and his points tend to come in bunches. Williams has submitted four games with 40 or more points, tying him with Anthony Davis, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kemba Walker for the second-highest total in the league this year, behind Houston Rockets guard James Harden.
