High Value PG

Emmanuel Mudiay-Denver Nuggets (5,900): Mudiay hit the game-winner against the 76ers on Wednesday, and he spent the whole night terrorizing them from every perspective.  Mudiay had 27 points, 11 rebounds, and four assists in his 42 minutes finishing with 51.25 fantasy points. Tonight, he’ll be in a matchup against fellow-rookie D’Angelo Russell as he faces the Lakers who have allowed the second-most fantasy points in the NBA to opposing PG. Mudiay has 22 points, seven rebounds, an four assists against the Lakers when the Nuggets beat them early this month which has proven to be the best of Mudiay’s career as he has averaged 17.5 points, 5.1 assists, and 4.3 rebounds per game while playing 30+ minute almost every night.  His offense can still come and go a bit, but he’s getting the run and has the potential for a big game in a good matchup tonight. ∗∗∗∗∗

Elfrid Payton-Orlando Magic (5,300): Payton has come off the bench for the Magic in his first three games back from his elbow injury, but he was able to log 34 minutes against the Pistons and finish with a very impressive triple-double of 20 points, ten rebounds, and ten assists on his way to 53.5 fantasy points. Tonight, he’s in a tough matchup against the Heat who limit opposing PG very well, so even if he moves back into the lineup there’s definitely some risk.  He does have huge potential, though, and looks to be fully recovered from his injury. If starting-∗∗∗ Off the bench-∗∗

Jerryd Bayless-Milwaukee Bucks (3,800): While he hasn’t been consistent lately, Bayless is starting at the point for the Bucks and getting big minutes.  He had 15 points and five boards against the Cavs on Wednesday for 24.25 fantasy points in his 33 minutes.  Bayless can produce over 30 fantasy points, but he’s a big risk to take on a night with so many other options on the board.∗

Shaun Livingston-Golden State Warriors (3,300): Even if Curry starts and plays his normal minutes, Livingston is worth a look since he has at least 15 fantasy points in five of his last seven games including each of his last four.  He played 26 minutes against the Clippers and finished with 22.75 fantasy points on 11 points, five rebounds, and three assists.  If he continues to get the playing time he has been receiving recently, he’s a great buy at under 4K. ∗∗∗
