High Salary PG

Russell Westbrook, OKC at BOS ($11,600): After contributing just 38.5 fantasy point against the Clippers on Friday, Westbrook posted 74.6 fantasy points against the Raptors on Sunday. He’s been up-and-down in recent contests and needs 49.4 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. Even if he’s not turning in a big scoring game, Westbrook always contributes in other categories. Not having to deal with the offense of Kyrie Irving or the defense of Marcus Smart should make things easier on Westbrook in this one. He should get you 50 fantasy points and put himself over value. *****

Ricky Rubio, UTA vs ATL ($8,000): Once again, get ready to read a lot about Utah players as they continue on with their favorable schedule. Rubio had 38.3 fantasy points against the Kings on Saturday. He needs 34.1 fantasy points to reach value on Tuesday. The Hawks are 22nd against the piston in their last 15 games. It should be another strong night for Rubio and the rest of the Jazz as they take care of business against Atlanta. ****

Kyle Lowry, TOR at ORL ($7,500): The magic are 30th against the position in their last 15 games. Lowry had 40.8 fantasy points in 27 minutes against the Thunder on Sunday. He had 42.9 fantasy points against the Magic on Feb. 28. He hasn’t played many minutes as of late as the Raptors are comfortably in first place don’t need to overwork their star players. That’s the only risk when it comes to Lowry, but he should play enough to easily be over value on Tuesday. ****
