High ValueĀ PG
Emmanuel Mudiay-Denver Nuggets (4,900): 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. Ā He finished with 24.8 fantasy points and has at least 23 fantasy points in three of his four games back from an ankle injury. Ā 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 featuresĀ Russell Westbrook on offense but allows the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing PG. With Nelson-āāĀ No Nelson-āāāā
Tyler Johnson-Miami Heat (4,500): Johnson has at least 20 fantasy points in each of his last four games since stepping into a larger role for Miami with the injuryĀ to Goran Dragic followed by Beno Udrih also going down injured. Johnson had 16 points, six rebounds, and four assists on Sunday in a start against the Thunder, and I expect him to get the nod again tonight against the Bucks. Ā He should get plenty of minutes tonight, and I think Miami will play well as they return home after a long, six-game West Coast trip. āāāā
Norris Cole-New Orleans Pelicans (4,100):Ā Cole got the start yesterday in place of Tyreke Evans and would likely step up again today if the Pelicans canāt get Tyreke back on the floor against the T-Wolves. Ā Cole had ten points, four assists, and two steals for just 17.2 fantasy points in his start yesterday, so I like him tonight if he plays but less than Johnson and Mudiay.Ā No Evans-āāĀ With Evans-no stars
