High Salary PG

Rajon Rondo-Sacramento Kings (8,400): Rondo and the Kings tangle with the Pelicans tonight who have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing PG so far this season.  Rondo had 17 points, ten assists, and five rebounds the first time these two teams met this season and is having a very productive start to 2016.  In his 12 games this month, Rondo is averaging 11 points, 13.3 assists, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.4 steals.  He may not have to deal with Tyreke Evans (questionable) or Anthony Davis (doubtful) tonight, so Rondo should have the Kings offense running in high gear tonight in New Orleans. ∗∗∗∗

Jrue Holiday-New Orleans Pelicans (6,700): The Pelicans may be without both Tyreke Evans (questionable) and Anthony Davis (doubtful) which would leave a lot of the offense to Jrue Holiday.  Holiday had a monster game on Monday with 32 points to go with nine assists, six rebounds, and three steals on his way to 58 fantasy points against the Rockets.  Holiday has at least 37 fantasy points in four of his last five games, and he will be the go-to option in the Pelicans offense tonight against the Kings. Without Evans and Davis-∗∗∗∗∗ With Evans-∗∗∗∗

Mike Conley-Memphis Grizzlies (6,200): Conley has played well in four games since returning from an Achilles injury.  He had his best game of the four on Monday against the Magic finishing with 39 fantasy points in 39 minutes on 12 points, nine assists, six rebounds, and two steals. He has at least 28 fantasy points in each of his four games since returning and should be well-rested and ready to play as much as needed tonight after logging a full workload against Orlando. ∗∗∗∗
