High Salary PG

Players costing over $6,667

Kemba Walker (vs MIA – $9,300): Needs 40.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 32 fantasy points against Portland. Kemba was a bit cool against the Blazers but should heat back up against Miami. See what I did there? I like Kemba in this matchup because these two teams are competing for a playoff spot and Kemba is the best player on the floor. So I know he’ll bring his best game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Jamal Murray (at LAL – $7,000): Needs 30.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 38.4 fantasy points against San Antonio. Murray has played himself into a very nice rhythm and now he gets a great matchup against the Lakers. Have you seen the Lakers defense recently? It’s been very bad. And the Nuggets are a team desperate for a win after a few tough losses. And Murray is a guy who will relish taking it to a reeling Lakers squad. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Derrick White (at ATL – $6,700): Needs 29.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 41.3 fantasy points against Denver. White is up to the high salary range and everyone realized that he’s very good and playing extremely well. And now he gets a great matchup against the Hawks. The Spurs don’t always play with a lot of pace, but they’ll pick it up against the Hawks. And White is a guy who can push things. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
