High Salary PG

Victor Oladipo, IND vs WAS ($8,400): Oladipo is coming off a solid 43.25 fantasy point performance against the Sixers on Saturday. The Wizards are seventh against shooting guards in their last 15 games, but Oladipo represents the best shot of anyone on Indiana. He needs 37.8 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. This game projects to be an offensive showdown. If it is, Oladipo will be a big contributor in the points and assists department. He’ll be around 40 fantasy points in this one. ****

Ricky Rubio, UTA at NO ($6,500): Rubio was fantastic in the last week, peaking on Saturday with a season-high 50.75 fantasy points against the Spurs. Rubio is not only putting up big scoring numbers, but he’s turned into the playmaker that the Jazz thought they were getting when they acquired him in the offseason. Rubio had 31.5 fantasy points in 25 minutes against the Pelicans on Jan. 3. He should be over 35 fantasy points once again on Monday. ****

Jamal Murray, DEN vs CHA ($6,400): Murray missed value against the Warriors, contributing 24.5 fantasy points in that contest. Expect a bounce-back game for the Nuggets point guard in this one given the matchup. The Hornets are on a back-to-back and have played poorly on the road all season. The Nuggets on a roll right now and with a tough week behind them, they should have a lot of confidence heading into this contest. Expect Murray to be close to 35 fantasy points in this one. ****
