High Salary PG

Damian Lillard, POR vs SAC ($9,700): The Kings are 28th against point guards in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. Lillard is coming off a 63 fantasy point performance on Saturday against the Suns. He’s been over 60 fantasy points in three of his last five games. His trend suggests that he won’t quite hit 60 fantasy points on Tuesday, but the matchup certainly projects well. Maybe 60 fantasy points is asking too much, but 50 fantasy points should not be an issue for the Trail Blazers All-Star. *****

Kemba Walker, CHA vs CHI ($8,600): Walker posted 28.25 fantasy points in 28 minutes against the Pistons. Had he been available in DraftKings slates, he would have missed value. Prior to that, he had been over value in four straight. The Bulls are on a back-to-back and are still figuring out their rotations as they get healthy and look towards their future. The Hornets are a better team at home and Walker had 64 fantasy points against Chicago earlier this season. Expect him to be over 40 fantasy points without too much trouble. ****

Spencer Dinwiddie, BKN at CLE ($7,000): Dinwiddie missed value against the Bulls on Monday, but has an opportunity to bounce back on Tuesday. The Cavaliers are are 30th against the position in their last 15 games and remain questionable on defense. Dinwiddie is averaging 34 fantasy points in two games against the Cavaliers this season. He should be over value in this one, despite the back-to-back. Until the Cavaliers prove they can play consistent defense, they have to be taken advantage of. ****
