![HOUSTON, TX - MARCH 24: Chris Paul HOUSTON, TX - MARCH 24: Chris Paul](https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/c_fill,w_720,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto/shape/cover/sport/88a61ec6345e906991d183f496bab199282c61c2def95a0711fcea1b307caee4.jpg)
High Salary PG
Russell Westbrook, OKC at HOU ($12,200): Westbrook has been on a tear in his last three games, going over 70 fantasy points in two of those contests. He had 62.5 fantasy points in his non-70-plus fantasy point effort. The Rockets are 21st against the position in their last 15 games. You never have to worry about Westbrook playing at a high level every night. He’s going to get big numbers, it’s just a matter of whether or not his teammates can raise their game around him. *****
Damian Lillard, POR at SA ($9,600): Lillard missed Thurday’s Rockets game, but is scheduled to return against the Spurs. The Trail Blazers still have something to play for so don’t worry about Lillard taking it easy. He’ll play at his usual high level. The Spurs can be a tough matchup, but Lillard has raised his game down the stretch and this is one the Blazers need. Expect him over value on Saturday. ****
Chris Paul, HOU vs OKC ($8,400): The Thunder are 19th against the position in their last 15 games. Paul had 44.3 fantasy points against them on Mar. 6 and needs 37.1 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. He’s been over value in five of his last six games. The only concern for the Rockets right now is their mindset as they’ve locked up the top seed. But Russell Westbrook has a way of bringing out the best in opponents, which benefits Paul on Saturday. ****
