High Salary PG
Kyle Lowry, TOR vs BKN ($8,100): Lowry has been over 40 fantasy points in his last three games. He’s turning it up in preparation for the playoffs, but the Toronto bench limits his minutes more than other stars. That’s the concern against the Nets on Friday. He had 35.25 fantasy points in 33 minutes against Brooklyn on Mar. 13 and needs 36.5 fantasy points to reach value on Friday. Minutes are a concern, but he’ll get you around 35 fantasy points and could be stacked with Fed VanVleet. ***
Jeff Teague, MIN at NY ($7,300): Teague has been over value in his last three games. He had 43.5 fantasy points against the Clippers on Tuesday. The Knicks are sixth against point guards in their last 15 games, but their overall defense is at the bottom of the league. Teague had 36 fantasy points against New York on Jan. 12. He’s played well with Jimmy Butler out of the lineup and there is no reason to think he’ll fall off against the Knicks. ****
Dennis Schroder, ATL at GS ($6,800): Schroder was rested on Thursday against the Kings, so he should be good to go on Friday against the Warriors. The Warriors are 30th against the position in their last 15 games and welcoming back a rusty Steph Curry, who doesn’t exactly help their defense. He had 47.25 fantasy points against Golden State on Mar. 2. He looks to be in line for another big game on Friday. ****
