High Salary PG

Russell Westbrook, OKC at SA ($10,300): Westbrook is averaging 48.9 FPPG this year, but he’s been below that number in four straight games. Playing alongside two other scores has significantly cut into Westbrook’s numbers and his 60-point fantasy explosions are becoming less and less of a thing. That said, he always seems to play well against the Spurs and point guards have been able to do damage against them this year. The problem here is cost vs production as Westbrook has not played at or above his cost for the majority of the season. ***

Damian Lillard, POR at SAC ($8,900): If the last game for the Kings is any indication, Lillard is about to go off for 60+ fantasy points. The Kings defense is second worst in the league, Lillard shot much better against Orlando after a mini-slump. This is a great matchup and one that should produce plenty of points. *****

Kemba Walker, CHA at CHI ($7,900): The Bulls have the 17th ranked defense, but that feels low based on the eye test. The Bulls have no one to guard Walker, who should be able to bounce back after a disappointing loss to the Cavaliers. Expect the Walker that showed out against Boston and not the one that showed up against Cleveland. ****
