Chris Paul, PG, Los Angeles Clippers

Price: $9,900

Chris Paul is a game-time decision tonight with a thigh bruise, but Paul and Doc Rivers have both said that he's fine, and if he plays tonight, he's one of the top fantasy options of the day in a matchup with the Phoenix Suns.

Over the past month, Paul is averaging 42.9 FanDuel points, putting up 22.5 points, 8.8 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game with a 28.7 percent Usage Rate. His numbers are even better when you look at games without Blake Griffin this season, where he's averaging 43.8 fantasy points with a 29.2 percent Usage Rate.

The Suns' perimeter defense has been awful this year, and they're giving up the second most fantasy points per game to opponents at both guard positions. They also rank 28th with a 109.1 Defensive Efficiency and are allowing a league-high .529 Effective Field Goal Percentage.

On the off chance that Paul doesn't play tonight, Kyle Lowry makes for another strong high-end play at point guard. Lowry is averaging 37.4 FanDuel in 38.2 minutes per game and is up against the Knicks, who rank 20th in Defensive Efficiency and are allowing above-league-average fantasy scoring to point guards on the season.
