High Salary PG
Russell Westbrook-Oklahoma City Thunder (9,800): Westbrook still had a double-double even in defeat in Game 2 posting 16 points and 12 assists for 36.2 fantasy points in Game 2. He had a massive 63.2 fantasy points in Game 1, and as the series shifts to OKC he is a great option for Game 3. While passing on either of the top-line PG’s is tough, I’d go with Westbrook over Curry in Game 3 if forced to choose just one megastar PG..∗∗∗∗
Stephen Curry-Golden State Warriors (9,800): Curry dinged his elbow chasing a loose ball in Game 2, but he should be fully recovered by Sunday after having three days off. He managed to play through the injury well in Game 2 carrying Golden State to a win with 28 points including a third-quarter outburst that put the game out of reach for the Thunder. Curry didn’t have many non-scoring stats, though, so he totaled just 33.9 fantasy points. He doesn’t have quite the broad statistical production atet Westbrook offers, so I’d place him just behind Russ in my PG rankings for tonight’s competition. ∗∗∗
Kyrie Irving-Cleveland Cavaliers (7,300): Irving remained reelable for 30+ fantasy points even in blowouts in Game 2 scoring 26 points in 37 minutes and adding enough non-scoring numbers to get to 34.3 fantasy points. He has at least 30 fantasy points in every game this playoffs with over 33 in each of his last four. Although he doesn’t have the potential of Curry or Westbrook to go for over 60 fantasy points, he costs much less and has been able to produce regardless of game situation.∗∗
