High Value PG

Emmanuel Mudiay-Denver Nuggets (5,400): Mudiay was back in the starting lineup for Denver on Sunday against the Pacers playing a whopping 37 minutes and finishing with ten points, six assists, three steals, four rebounds, and seven turnovers. He finished with 28.5 fantasy points and has at least 25 fantasy points in three of his four games back from an ankle injury. If Jameer Nelson is again sidelined with a wrist issue, Mudiay will get plenty of playing time and is an intriguing option with upside against a Thunder team that features Russell Westbrook on offense but allows the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing PG. With Nelson-∗∗ No Nelson-∗∗∗∗

Norris Cole-New Orleans Pelicans (3,800): Cole got the start yesterday in place of Tyreke Evans and would likely step up again today if the Pelicans can’t get Tyreke back on the floor against the T-Wolves. Cole had ten points, four assists, and two steals for just 19.25 fantasy points in his start yesterday, so I like him tonight if he plays but less than Mudiay. No Evans-∗∗∗ With Evans-no stars
