High Salary PG

Players costing over $6,250

Russell Westbrook (vs BKN – $11,000): Needs 52.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 53.75 fantasy points against Utah. You rarely have to worry about numbers when it comes to Russell Westbrook. And with PG not scoring, Westbrook has taken on that load. The Thunder crowd will give him a big boost after the Utah incident, not that Westbrook needs the extra energy. The offense should be up in this one.. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Donovan Mitchell (at PHO – $8,500): Needs 40.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 49.5 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. Mitchell has carried the Jazz offense and now he gets the Suns. The Suns being a competitive team is actually better for Mitchell and the Jazz because it means he’ll get more minutes and it lessens the blowout potential. Mitchell is the only guy who can get bucks on most nights for the Jazz. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Mike Conley (at ATL – $7,800): Needs37.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46.75 fantasy points against Orlando. Unless something goes badly wrong for the Conley, he should continue the roll he’s on. He’s been fantastic lately and now he gets the Hawks, who always give up DFS points. This will be a battle of opposite styles but Conley can play the Hawks game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
