Russell Westbrook, PG, Oklahoma City Thunder

Price: $10,600

It's hard not to love most Thunder players in tonight's game against Philadelphia. Both teams rank in the top 10 in Pace, meaning there will be plenty of scoring and possessions to go around, and Philadelphia ranks 26th in Defensive Efficiency, while turning the ball over at the highest rate in the league. They're giving up huge fantasy scoring to opponents at just about every position, including allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing point guards.

Russell Westbrook is not a guy you want to be up against if you struggle to stop point guards. He's averaging 23.5 points, 11.7 assists, 7.2 boards and 1.4 steals per game, good for 49.0 FanDuel points.

Our numbers are very high on Westbrook in this matchup, projecting him for 23.9 points, 9.9 assists and 7.1 rebounds as well as 48.07 fantasy points, the highest number of the night.
