High Salary PG

Chris Paul ($8,700): Paul was up-and-down in the first round series against the Timberwolves. He’s played the secondary role to James Harden for most of the season, but his ability to deliver a big game still remains. He averaged 50 fantasy points in three games against the Jazz in the regular season, but two of those games came in December. He had 39.7 fantasy points in the Feb. 26 contest. With Ricky Rubio out, Paul finds himself in a better position. ****

High Value PG

Darren Collison ($5,600): Collison has been up-and-down throughout this series. He was solid in Game 6, finishing with 22.9 fantasy points. Cory Joseph has looked good in relief of Collison, but he remains the starting point guard and gets the bulk of the opportunities next to Victor Oladipo. ***

Cory Joseph ($4,400): Joseph has been over value in the last two games and gets good run off the bench. In a two game slate, with one game being a Game 7 and the other being a Game 1, you need guaranteed value. Joseph has provided that in the last two games, but he’s a slight risk in Game 7. **

George Hill ($3,600): Hill is listed as questionable for Game 7, and even if he plays, he’s not the best of options. Maybe you take the risk due to his veteran leadership and hope he gets hot at home. But there’s not much reason to take him. *
