High Salary PG

Russell Westbrook-Oklahoma City Thunder (10,800): Westbrook had a tough Game 1, but he bounced back well in Game 2 with 29 points, ten assists, and seven rebounds for a total of 59.25 fantasy points. He has at least 55 fantasy points in three of his last four games and is definitely the way to go if you have the money to spend on a PG tonight.  He produces in so many categories that he actually is a solid value despite his almost 11K price tag. Even though he only had 33 fantasy points in Game 1, I see him as a pretty low-risk play tonight. ∗∗∗∗

Kyrie Irving-Cleveland Cavaliers (8,300): Kyrie has been strong throughout the playoffs and is a solid option at PG if you decide not to spend big on Westbrook. Irving has at least 32 fantasy points in each of his playoff games and had 40.75 in Game 1 when he played full minutes. He only had 23 minutes in Game 2, but he still managed 34 fantasy points on 19 points and six assists. He should be good for at least 30 fantasy points with a ceiling for a lot more if he has to play closer to 40 minutes than the low 20’s he played last game. ∗∗∗
