High Value PG

Derrick Rose-Chicago Bulls (5,800):  Rose had 21 points last night against the Knicks and totaled 31.75 fantasy points thanks to three rebounds and four assists.  He has at least 31 fantasy points in three straight contests and is back to playing over 30 minutes a night.  He should be able to attack his good matchup against the Knicks’ guards again tonight, so look for another solid game for Rose even if Jimmy Butler’s presence in the backcourt next to him keeps him from going off. ∗∗

Toney Douglas-New Orleans Pelicans (5,100): The constant threat of Norris Cole returning (questionable again tonight) is keeping Douglas’s salary to manageable levels. Douglas has at least 24 fantasy points in each of his last five games while averaging 14.8 points, 5.4 assists, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.6 steals.  He is extremely involved in the offense when he is on the floor and has played over 30 minutes in six of his last eight games.  He has the upside to go off for 30+ fantasy points, and is the best play under 6K tonight as long as Cole is still out. No Cole-∗ With Cole-

Tim Frazier-New Orleans Pelicans (3,700): The other Pelicans’ backup PG getting enough run to consider if Cole is out is former-Trail Blazer Tim Frazier. Frazier has at least 11 points in four straight games and has over 19 fantasy points in each of those contests with over 33 fantasy points in two of them. He’s a boom-or-bust play, but he’s an awesome cheap option if Cole is still sidelined tonight. No Cole-∗∗ With Cole-

Shane Larkin-Brooklyn Nets (3,000): Larkin will return to the starting lineup tonight against the Cavs as he takes over for the largely ineffective Donald Sloan.  Larkin has had his own struggles and inconsistencies throughout the season though, so he’s nothing more than a total flier who has the upside to at least get some minutes tonight.
