High Salary PG

Players costing over $6,250

D’Angelo Russell (at CLE – $8,500): Needs 39.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 60.25 fantasy points against Toronto. Russell is staying hot and now he has a great matchup against the Cavaliers. I worry about Russell coming back from the All-Star break when LeVert gets healthier, but we’re not to the point yet. For right now, we are before the All-Star break and Russell is an All-Star. And he will show out against a weak Cavaliers squad. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Devin Booker (at LAC – $8,300): Needs 38.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 45 fantasy points against Sacramento. I love this game from a DFS perspective. Neither team plays defense and both teams have some high scoring guards. And Booker is certainly the best high scoring option on the Suns. I’m expecting a big game out of him on Tuesday, given his ceiling and this matchup. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Eric Bledsoe (at IND – $6,900): Needs 32.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 26.75 fantasy points against Chicago Bledsoe was a bit down against the Bulls but I’m not concerned. The Bulls weren’t really worth worrying about for the Bucks. But the Pacers, even without Oladipo, are playing good basketball right now. This will be a tough and competitive matchup for the Bucks and that should mean big minutes for their stars. And we’ve seen Bledsoe deliver big outings this season. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
