High Value PG

Jordan Clarkson-Los Angeles Lakers (5,700): In many ways, Clarkson is the last Lakers guard standing with Lou Williams missing last night’s game with an illness and Kobe Bryant batting multiple injuries in his “last rodeo.”  Clarkson had 24.8 fantasy points on 16 points, four rebounds, and four assists last night against the Bulls after posting a solid 18 points, seven assists, and six rebounds on Tuesday against the Mavericks.  He should continue to be one of LA’s most realible offensive options tonight although he will have to deal with the tough defense of Chris Paul. No Williams or Kobe-∗∗∗∗ With Williams and Kobe-∗∗

Archie Goodwin-Phoenix Suns (5,000): Goodwin isn’t as cheap as he was earlier in his tenure filling in for the injured Brandon Knight, but he’s still worth a look at 5K against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden tonight.  Goodwin was excellent in his first three starts with 20, 24, and 26 points fueling him to over 25 fantasy points in each of those three games including an impressive 42.2 fantasy points against the 76ers on Tuesday.  He cooled off on Wednesday in the second game of his back-to-back scoring 12 points to go with five assists for just 20.9 fantasy points. He is still definitely adjusting to his starting role, but he will be a good value at this price tonight since he’ll keep getting plenty of minutes for the Suns as long as they have so many injuries in their backcourt. ∗∗∗∗

Patrick Beverley-Houston Rockets (4,400): Beverley has over 24 fantasy points in two of his three games since returning from his knee injury last week. He didn’t have a good game against the tough Spurs’ defense on Wednesday, but he should be able to get more going tonight against the Thunder who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing PG this season. ∗∗∗

Jose Juan Barea-Dallas Mavericks (3,900): Barea has been getting pretty good playing time lately with at least 20 minutes in three of his last four games.  He has 29.8 and 24.1 fantasy points in his last two games.  Devin Harris is questionable, and if Harris is out tonight against Brooklyn, Barea will be a good cheap flier. No Harris-∗∗ With Harris-stay away.
