High Salary PG

Lonzo Ball, LAL vs ORL ($8,000): Ball had 20.4 fantasy points against the Trail Blazers on Monday. His scoring remains decent, but his poor rebounding and playmaking cost him value against Portland. Seeing as those are the strongest parts of his game, it’s fair to think that he won’t struggle in the same manner against the Magic. He needs 34.9 fantasy points to hit value. That should be no problem given the matchup. Expect him over 40 fantasy points. ****

Eric Bledsoe, MIL vs HOU ($7,500): Bledsoe has been over value in three straight, going over 40 fantasy points in each contest. He needs 32.8 fantasy points to be at value on Wednesday. With Khris Middleton struggling, Bledsoe has picked up the slack. The Rockets are on a back-to-back, which could make things slightly easier on the Bucks. But it’s tough to see Houston losing to anyone right now. That said, Bledsoe should have a good scoring and passing night, putting himself over value once more. ****

Rajon Rondo, NO at SAC ($6,900): Rondo has been over value in four of his last five. He’s been quietly good for the Pelicans as Anthony Davis is stealing all of the headlines. Playoff Rondo has arrived early, it would seem. The back-to-back is a little concerning because his one miss during this five-game stretch did come on a back-to-back. But the Kings are a great matchup and Rondo should post his usual solid numbers in all categories. ****
