Russell Westbrook, PG, Oklahoma City Thunder

FanDuel Price: $11,600

On a slate where both James Harden and Russell Westbrook are playing -- and have the same salary -- it's a pretty safe bet that you're going to want at least one of them in your lineup. Tonight, Westbrook gets a slight edge.

Westbrook's fantasy production has continued to climb as the season has progressed. His 57.0 fantasy points per game (a league high) are now on pace to be the second-most of all time, behind only Michael Jordan's 1988-89 season.

His 41.1% usage rate is also on pace to be the highest single-season mark of all time, and he's averaging a massive 61.3 FanDuel points per game over his last six outings.

The Sacramento Kings rank 28th in defensive rating on the season. With Russ bringing this historically great usage and production into a favorable matchup, it's hard not to project Westbrook as the highest fantasy scorer on the slate.
