High Value PG

Darren Collison-Sacramento Kings (5,800): Collison will need to step up for Sacramento as they travel to Denver tonight since DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo are both expected to be unavailable. Last night, Collison was on fire from the field going 8-13 and sinking all nine of his free throws on his way to 26 points and 29.4 fantasy points. Tonight, he’ll probably pick up his assist production since he’ll be running the point, and he has really nice upside in a good matchup against the Nuggets. Collison has proven he can be very productive when starting in place of Rondo, and he should be able to reach 26 fantasy points for the fifth straight contest tonight. ∗∗∗∗∗

D.J. Augustin-Denver Nuggets (4,800): On the other side of the Kings-Nuggets matchup, Augustin is a nice cheap play as he continues to get plenty of minutes and production off the bench for Denver. Augustin has at least 23 fantasy points in three of his last five games and six of his last ten. He is averaging 12.7 points, 5.2 assists, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in his 23 games since the All Star break, and he has proven to be a great trade deadline acquisition for the Nuggets. Tonight, his production depends on how Emmanuel Mudiay performs since he shares time at PG with the somewhat-inconsistent rookie.∗∗

Isaiah Canaan-Philadelphia 76ers (3,900): There aren’t any great ultra-cheap plays at PG tonight, but Canaan is getting some solid time for the Sixers in their current rotation. He has played at least 24 minutes in each of his last ten games and has at least 16 fantasy points in eight of those contests. He and the rest of the Sixers struggled in Charlotte, but he’ll look to bounce back tonight against the Pacers tonight. I don’t love Canaan as a cheap play tonight, but he’s the best of the bunch at the shallow end of the pool. ∗∗∗∗
