High Salary PG

John Wall, WAS at DET ($10,300): After producing 45+ fantasy points in four straight, Wall was a bust on Wednesday, contributing 30.9 fantasy points in 24 minutes against the Hornets. I can’t imagine the Wizards coming out flat again, but this team has been inconsistent all season. Wall had 45.6 fantasy points against them on Oct. 20, but I would not put much stock into that number given how long ago it was. I’m expecting a big bounce back for Wall as he tries to get Washington back on track. The Pistons are 17th against the position in their last 15 games. ****

Kyle Lowry, TOR vs SA ($7,700): Lowry has hit value in three of his last four. He needs 32.7 fantasy points to hit value on Friday. He had 13.9 fantasy points against the Spurs on Oct. 23. That game is more or less meaningless since it took place so early in the season. That said, the Spurs are fourth against the position in their last 15 games. I don’t love Lowry on Friday, but I do think he’ll be around value. ***

Goran Dragic, MIA at BKN ($7,500): The Nets are 30th against the position in their last 15 games. Dragic was a miss on Wednesday, posting 21.3 fantasy points against the Bucks. He should be able to bounce back in this one given the matchup and his usage rate, especially with Tyler Johnson out once again. He’s averaging 33.1 fantasy points in two games against the Nets this season. That number would put him just over value on Friday. I like him to be around 35 fantasy points, if not higher. ****
