High Salary PG

Stephen Curry-Golden State Warriors (10,200): Curry is the only player on FanDuel tonight that costs more than 10K. He played 34 minutes in Memphis last night and totaled 42.75 fantasy points on 17 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists.  He usually is good for at least over 50 fantasy points, but he’s risky tonight since Steve Kerr is trying to manage his minutes to get him and the rest of the team ready for the playoffs. Curry has the ability to go off and the potential to carry your team, but he is risky since the Spurs will try to smother him once again and his own coach could limit his time on the floor tonight.∗∗

Kyle Lowry-Toronto Raptors (7,100): Lowry’s price makes him a great option if he gets the start and plays his normal minutes against a porous Knicks backcourt defense tonight.  This season, Lowry has averaged 23.7 points, ten assists, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.1 steals in his three games against New York, and at this point it looks like he’ll play after sitting out Friday’s game against Indiana.  Lowry has had slightly down numbers in his last few games failing to reach 35 fantasy points in five of his last seven.  However, in the matchup tonight, I think Lowry is a very solid play if the Raptors decide to play their starters.  If starting-∗∗∗

Goran Dragic-Miami Heat (6,900): The Heat are not resting players coming down the stretch since their playoff seed could still be anywhere from #3-#6. Dragic and the Heat can’t afford to slip up tonight against their cross-state rival the Magic tonight, so expect them to play their normal rotation.  Dragic has scored at least 15 points in each of  Miami’s last five games averaging 17.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 5.2 assists.  He also has had a ton of success this season against Orlando averaging 19.7 points along with six assists and 4.7 rebounds. Dragic has at least 34 fantasy points in each of his last three games, and I think he’s a good pick to reach at least that level again tonight. ∗∗∗∗
