Must - James Harden
- The series will come down to the wire, and I am still certain it will come down to a Game 6, if not Game 7 - so I'm going to take a risk by saving Westbrook and Durant for now. If OKC wants to push the series further, however, they'll need their bench to step up - namely Harden. A 20+ point, 25+ PRA performance would provide a great spark of the bench needed to lift them over the Grizzlies. Outside of the Thunder's two superstars, Harden is the best scorer on the team, and must be the X factor in a crucial Game 4.
Bust - Rajon Rondo
- I am writing this a day in advance because I will be out of town, so I expect his 10% selection rate to go down, but am still busting Rondo regardless. Despite playing through a dislocated elbow in Game 3, Rondo's injury has definitely hindered him, and will likely hurt his numbers in Game 4 - if he plays at all. It was very heroic of him to return, but his injury will surely hamper the team at times and hurt his PRA numbers even more. Stay away as a precaution.
