High Salary PG

Isaiah Thomas-Boston Celtics (10,000): Thomas was straight fire for the month of January especially when things were close in the fourth quarter. He threw down 60.5 fantasy points on Wednesday to start the new month off right giving him at least 56 fantasy points in four straight and at least 49 fantasy points in eight of his last nine games. Tonight, he’ll be in what should be a high-scoring contest against the Lakers who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing PG this season. Thomas should be well on his way to another big night as long as the back-to-back on the road for LA doesn’t result in an early blowout.∗∗∗

Kyle Lowry-Toronto Raptors (8,900): While the Raptors have been without DeMar DeRozan, Kyle Lowry has been carrying the load on offense. He has at least 46 fantasy points in each of his last five games, and has at least 52 fantasy points in three of those games. One of his best games was against the Magic last Sunday when he had 33-5-8 for 54.25. He’ll face the Magic again tonight and is a good play especially if DeRozan is still sidelined. No DeRozan-∗∗∗∗ With DeRozan-∗∗

Eric Bledsoe-Phoenix Suns (8,800): At just about the same price point, Bledsoe is a good play as well especially if DeRozan returns to the court for Toronot. Bledsoe has a good matchup against the Kings in Sacramento, and should be again the focus of the Suns’ attack. He hasn’t been as consistent as Lowry but has  Bledsoe has three games in his last six with over 55 fantasy points. He had 41-4-8 for 56 fantasy points in his last game on Wednesday, and he’ll look to keep things rolling as he goes to Sacramento tonight.∗∗

Jeff Teague-Indiana Pacers (7,500): Both the Nets and Pacers play up-tempo, defense-optional style of games at times which could result in a flood of fantasy points in Brooklyn tonight. Teague is coming into tonight’s action looking to bounce back after just 13-1-9 for 25.75 fantasy points on Wednesday against Orlando after he had posted over 40 fantasy points in four of his previous five. Teague had 21-7-15 and over 50 fantasy points when the Pacers played the Nets early in January, so look for him to end up with a very nice number again tonight. Except for his last game, he’s in good form and should be ready to roll in a great matchup tonight. ∗∗∗∗
