High Salary PG

Players costing over $6,250

Kemba Walker (at WAS – $8,200): Needs 39.3 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 67.5 fantasy points against Houston. Kemba bounced back with a strong performance against the Rockets and now he has a good matchup against the Wizards. Don’t mind his last performance against Washington or the Wizards performance against the Magic. Their defense stinks and Kemba will carve them up. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Lou Williams (vs CHI – $7,100): Needs 33.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 25.75 fantasy points against Portland. Lou was down against the Blazers but don’t worry much. It was a back-to-back and the Bulls are the Bulls. We know what Lou is capable of and we know that he’ll take over these games down the stretch in order to better the position of the Clippers. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Elfrid Payton (vs POR – $6,600): Needs 31.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 57.25 fantasy points against Milwaukee. With Holiday out of the lineup, someone has to get these numbers for the Pelicans perimeter and Payton has been delivering in spades. The matchup doesn’t seem to matter at this point, it’s all about the circumstances. And the circumstances are certainly very good right now. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
