High Salary PG
Isaiah Thomas-Boston Celtics (8,800): Thomas had 43.6 fantasy points in Game One of the series scoring 27 points to go with eight assists, three boards, a block, and a steal. He definitely is the focus of the Boston offense and will get his production regardless of game situation tonight. Thomas led the Celtics furious comeback that fell just short in Game One, and he should be a solid pick to get to 40 fantasy points again tonight. Like several of the players on the board, his price has been bumped up due to scarcity of options tonight, but he’s still a pretty good investment. ∗∗∗
Jeff Teague-Atlanta Hawks (7,900): The other PG over 6K tonight is on the other side of the same matchup, and Teague actually out-produced Thomas in Game One. He finished with 23 points, 12 assists, and four boards on his way to 45.8 fantasy points, and if he gets similar production tonight he’ll be a nice value pickup. If I had to choose one option, I’d still prefer Thomas though since he has been more consistent throughout the season.∗∗
