Ballin' on a Semi-Budget

We don’t always mention the high-dollar stars in this thread, but when you’re on a run like that of Paul George, it’s kind of hard not to.

Over the past two weeks, George has hit at least five-times value in five of seven games, including an outing against the Utah Jazz that netted him just shy of 84 FanDuel points on account of 43 points, 14 boards, six assists, and a handful of steals. Say what?!

And arguably the best part about PG’s latest run is the fact that he’s the fifth-highest scoring fantasy player in the last couple weeks, yet his salary still places him below names like Anthony Davis, teammate Russell Westbrook, James Harden, and Giannis Antetokounmpo. He’s giving you superstar output at 56 fantasy points a night and doing so at an efficient clip.

The Thunder visit Portland tonight, followed by games against Washington, Minnesota, and San Antonio.
