High Salary PG

Russell Westbrook, OKC vs MEM ($11,900): Here’s what we know about Westbrook heading into the last game: he needs 16 rebounds to average a triple double for the season. Here’s what we know about Westbrook over the course of the last two seasons: he’s going to get those 16 rebounds. Thrown in plenty of points and assists and he should be over 60 fantasy points. It’s the last game of the season, Memphis are playing a G-League squad, and Westbrook loves his numbers. *****

Damian Lillard, POR vs UTA ($8,600): Lillard struggling against the Nuggets, finishing with 36 fantasy points on Monday. The Jazz present a tougher matchup, but they are on a back-to-back. This is a big game for both teams and their superstars should step up. Lillard is the most likely guy to post a monster game for the Trail Blazers and he knows how to raise his game for the playoffs. He’ll play big minutes, he’ll get his shots, and he should have at least 40 fantasy points. ****

Donovan Mitchell, UTA at POR ($8,000): Mitchell had 32.25 fantasy points in 26 minutes against the Warriors on Tuesday. The extra rest should have the Jazz on fresher legs despite being on a back-to-back. Mitchell has proven time-and-time again this season that he can raise his game in big moments. They’ll need him to be at his best and he’ll want to make a statement heading into the playoff. Expect him around 40 fantasy points. ****
