High Salary PG

Jeff Teague, MIN vs GS ($7,100): Teague has missed value just once since Feb. 11. He continues to step up with Jimmy Butler out. The Warriors are 28th against the position in their last 15 games. The addition of Derrick Rose complicates things for Teague as it means he’ll be splitting reps with the former MVP. But Rose’s minutes are unknown and his production is likely to be great. Teague will be over value once again. ****

Ricky Rubio, UTA at NO ($6,300): Rubio has been over value in his last six. His salary has actually dipped to where he needs 28.9 fantasy points to hit value on Sunday. Anthony Davis’ playing complicates things a bit for the Utah offense, but not enough to where Rubio should be under 30 fantasy points. The Pelicans are 19th against point guards in their last 15 games. ****

Kyrie Irving, BOS vs IND ($8,100): No Jaylen Brown means Irving has to take on more scoring responsibility. Some of those opportunities will go to Jayson Tatum, but Irving is far more reliable, especially with the way Tatum has played in the last couple of months. He should be over 40 fantasy points as he puts up his usual well-rounded offensive game. ****

Lonzo Ball, LAL vs CLE ($7,600): Ball posted 45.5 fantasy points against the Nuggets on Friday. He had 43.5 fantasy points when these two teams met on Dec. 14. His scoring numbers have been up and he’s typically a contributor with rebounds and assists. The Cavaliers still struggle to defend and Ball can hurt them in a variety of ways. Expect him over 40 fantasy points. ****
