Russell Westbrook, PG, Oklahoma City Thunder

FanDuel Price: $13,000

Even by the absurd standards he has set this season, Russell Westbrook has been posting some incredible numbers lately. He has 60-plus FanDuel points in 9 of his last 11 games (only three other players have at least 9 such games over the course of the entire season), and he is averaging 61.1 per game in that span.

He's obviously a nightly triple-double threat, as he is averaging a triple-double per game on the season, and while he already leads the league in scoring, his offensive numbers have really exploded recently, with at least 40 points in three straight games.

His usage rate has also climbed to truly ridiculous marks in that time, with marks of 48.0%, 51.0%, and 54.1% over those three games.

It's easy to write off huge numbers like that as unsustainable, but with an average of 57.7 FanDuel points per game on the season, don't expect Westbrook to slow down too much, especially in an outstanding matchup with the Phoenix Suns.

The Suns have played at the league's fourth-highest pace over the past month while also sporting a bottom-10 defensive rating in that time. They also rank only 24th against point guards from a fantasy standpoint.
