High Value PG

Toney Douglas-New Orleans Pelicans (5,900): Douglas and the Pelicans host the Bulls tonight who are playing for the first time since being eliminated from playoff contention. Chicago has allowed the seventh-most fantasy points this season to opposing PG, so Douglas should continue to produce nice lines as the starting point for the Pelicans.  He has at least 30 fantasy points in three straight contests and has scored at least 19 points in each of those outings.  At under 6K, he’s a solid play tonight since he continues to start and get good minutes. ∗∗∗∗

Patrick Beverley-Houston Rockets (5,200): The Rockets are one of my favorite stacks tonight since they have everything to play for and are in a good matchup against the defensively-challenged Timberwolves in Minnesota.  Beverley has been doing his part to help the Rockets stay in the playoff hunt with at least 27 fantasy points in four of his last six games including yesterday when he totaled 37.4 fantasy points against the Lakers on 19 points, seven boards, six assists, and a steal. He’ll be a good play again tonight even though the matchup isn’t quite as good as he faces Ricky Rubio and the Wolves. ∗∗∗∗

Raymond Felton-Dallas Mavericks (4,800): Felton has been productive in both of his last two games finishing with 40.2 and 33.3 fantasy points against the Grizz and Clippers.  His role tonight is a little tricky to figure out since Deron Williams made a surprise return yesterday but may not be ready for back-to-back nights and J.J. Barea missed yesterday’s game injured but still has a chance to play tonight. If Felton starts, he’s a very good option, but there’s no guarantee he logs enough minutes to really go off. If starting-∗∗∗∗∗ not starting-∗∗

Shane Larkin-Brooklyn Nets (4,600): Minutes are no problem for Shane Larkin anymore since he has moved into the starting lineup for the Nets.  He has averaged 9.7 points, 6.8 assists, 1.7 steals, and 3.7 rebounds in last ten games while playing 30.6 minutes per contest. He has at least 26 fantasy points in three of his last five games and totaled 32.8 fantasy points against the Pacers yesterday on 15 points, eight assists, and four rebounds. ∗∗∗

Ramon Sessions-Washington Wizards (4,200): With John Wall resting his knee but not officially ruled out yet and Breadley Beal severely limited as well, the Wizards have been giving plenty of playing time to Ramon Sessions.  Sessions has been excellent filling in for Wall including a 18-point, 13-assists double-double that resulted in 40.1 fantasy points against the Nets who he’ll face again tonight.  He had a double-double yesterday afternoon against the Hornets totaling 38.5 fantasy points, and he’ll be in a great place to produce if he gets another start tonight. If starting-∗∗∗∗∗ If not-∗∗∗
