High Salary PG

Russell Westbrook-Oklahoma City Thunder (10,400): Westbrook may not get his full complement of minutes, but you know he’ll be fired up to take on Kobe for the final time. He only played 34 minutes against the Kings on Saturday but still posted a solid 24 points and ten assists for a total of 39 fantasy points. He has at least 45 fantasy points in five of his last seven games, and he’s in a great matchup against the Lakers who have given up more fantasy points to opposing PG than any other team in the NBA.  Westbrook has averaged 24 points, 8.7 assists, and seven rebounds against LA this season but only averaged 30.7 minutes per game in those three contests.  His only risk is his playing time, but he has the potential to put on quite a show as the Thunder close out their home schedule for the regular season before heading to San Antonio tomorrow in their final game before the playoffs. ∗∗

Isaiah Thomas-Boston Celtics (7,600): IT4 didn’t have a great game on Saturday against the Hawks scoring just 16 points to go with six assists and two steals for 27.4 fantasy points. He has under 30 fantasy points in each of his last two games, but he should be ready to bounce back in a big game against Kemba Walker and the Hornets tonight.  Thomas and the Celtics are still playing for home court advantage, so they’ll play their starters tonight at TD Garden.∗∗∗

Darren Collison-Sacramento Kings (6,300): Rajon Rondo has sat out the last two games for the Kings and could be done for the season.  It’s very unlikely that he plays tonight son the road against the Suns which leaves a tasty matchup for Collison against the team that has allowed the second-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PG. Collison has played at least 37 minutes in each of his last three games and has at least 26.9 fantasy points in each of his last seven.  He should be primed to produce a good stat line tonight coming off his 43-fantasy-point game agains the Thunder on Friday when he scored 27 points to go with eight assists, five rebounds and a steal.∗∗∗∗
