Top 4 Shooting Guards

  1. Victor Oladipo ($10,000) vs. Washington Wizards
  2. Lou Williams ($8,200) vs. Brooklyn Nets
  3. Buddy Hield ($5,900) vs. New York Knicks
  4. J.J. Redick ($5,000) vs. Milwaukee Bucks

Rationale:

  • The scoring average of 23.2 points per game from Lou Williams has captured the attention of FanDuel NBA lineups all year, but his elevated assist total over the past five games has been an unexpected boost. Williams is coming off an eight-assist effort against the New York Knicks Friday night and is posting 6.6 assists per game during the five-game stretch. Williams added 21 points during the win over the Knicks, giving him 39 games with 20 or more points in 60 appearances this year.
  • The shots from the perimeter haven’t been falling for Sacramento Kings guard Buddy Hield. Over the past three games, Hield has converted from 3-point range just twice despite launching 11 attempts. Even with the shooting slump, the 24-year-old guard is knocking down 42.1 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc this year, the 17th-highest percentage in the NBA.
