High Salary PG

Damian Lillard, POR vs GS ($9,400): Lillard has been over value in five of his last six. He’s been over 50 fantasy points in four of those games and is averaging 58.6 fantasy points in two games against the Warriors this season. On top of all that, Warriors are on a back-to-back. Golden State will raise their game given the matchup, but Lillard is on a different level himself right now. The Trail Blazers may not win, but Lillard will certainly get his, likely going over 50 fantasy points once again. *****

Bradley Beal, WAS at NO ($9,100): Get ready to read a lot about the Wizards. No Anthony Davis for the Pelicans means big things for everyone on the Wizards, most notably their best player. Beal followed up his 50.25 fantasy point game against the Pacers with 49 fantasy points against the Heat. He should have similar success on Friday as the already shaky Pelicans defense will be without the guy who cleans up all their mistakes. *****

Kyle Lowry, TOR vs HOU ($7,400): Lowry is coming off a 56.75 fantasy point effort against the Pistons on Wednesday. He had 43.75 fantasy points against the Rockets on Nov. 14, but didn’t have to contend with Chris Paul in that game. This is a big game for the Raptors, which means their bench might see a little less run than usual. Lowry has stepped up when they’ve needed him all season, whether it be through scoring or playmaking. He’ll step up against on Friday, likely push 40 fantasy points. ****
