Top 4 Shooting Guards

  1. James Harden ($11,800) vs. Atlanta Hawks
  2. Donovan Mitchell ($8,000) vs. Golden State Warriors
  3. D’Angelo Russell ($6,800) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
  4. Dwyane Wade ($5,000) vs. Indiana Pacers

Rationale:

  • All the Utah Jazz need to clinch a winning season is one more victory. In what was supposed to be a down year, after the team lost Gordon Hayward to the Boston Celtics in free agency, rookie guard Donovan Mitchell has emerged as a potential franchise player. Mitchell leads all first-year players in scoring at 20.3 points per game and he is one of just three players, along with Stephen Curry and Damian Lillard, to convert at least 160 shots from 3-point range in his debut season.
  • A knee bruise forced Goran Dragic to miss Saturday’s practice session, providing Dwyane Wade with an opportunity to play more minutes. During the last two games, Wade has connected on just 6-of-20 attempts from the field, but has managed to force a turnover in each of the last two games. Prior to his shooting slump over the last two games, Wade averaged 18.8 points on 51.8 percent shooting during the previous six contests.
