High Value PG

D’Angelo Russell-Los Angeles Lakers (5,600): Russell has been excellent his last two games which both came against the Grizzlies in a home-and-home set before LA got a three-day weekend.  Russell had 22 points in each of those contests and added enough non-scoring numbers to get 40 fantasy points and 32.75 fantasy points. He’s still under-priced for the role he’s in now that he’s locked into the Lakers starting lineup, and he should be able to find success against the Donald Sloan-Shane Larkin duo that the Nets are still counting on at the point. 

Donald Sloan-Brooklyn Nets (5,100): Sloan is an interesting play tonight since he’s taking on the Lakers who allow more fantasy points to opposing PG than any other team in the NBA, and he has been playing pretty well lately.  Sloan has at least ten points in four straight games and hast at least 23 fantasy points in five of his last six. He’s getting the playing time for the Nets and in this matchup, he could be a steal at this price.

Ronnie Price-Phoenix Suns (4,200): With Brandon Knight already ruled out for the Suns four-game trip that starts tonight, Price should continue to get plenty of playing time as the Suns starting point guard.  He was a bit of a disappointment on Saturday when he got in foul trouble against the Grizz and only had 12.5 fantasy points, but he had back-t0-back games with over 25 fantasy points and remains a big part of the Suns offense which makes him a steal at under 4K.
