High Value PG

George Hill-Indiana Pacers (4,700): Hill has at least 20 fantasy points in each of the last four games against the Raptors and had 12 points, five rebounds, and four assists in Game 6 for a solid 23 fantasy points. He has 25.9 fantasy points in Game 5 in Toronto where he’ll take on the Raptors and Kyle Lowry in a decisive Game 7 Sunday night. Hill is unlikely to go off, but the Pacers need him to be a play-maker and take some of the offensive weight off of Paul George. ∗∗

Shaun Livingston-Golden State Warriors (4,500): Livingston will get the starting nod for the Warriors for as long as Steph Curry is sidelined.  He fared well in his three starts in Round 1 against the Rockets scoring exactly 16 points in each of those contests.  He had over 23 fantasy points in each of his last four games against Houston, and he will continue to be a vital component to the Warriors sans-Steph attack. ∗∗∗∗

Tony Parker-San Antonio Spurs (4,500): The Spurs cruised past the Grizzlies so easily its hard to know what to read in to their stats from the contests since many of them were so noncompetitive. Parker is in a good matchup against the Thunder who don’t defend opposing PG very well at all.  He should be well rested after playing under 25 minutes in each of the four games in San Antonio’s first round series, but the last game he played all-out in was at the end of the regular season when he had 20 points in 37 minutes against the Thunder.  He should have a good series and is a nice value at this price. ∗∗∗

Cory Joseph-Toronto Raptors (3,700): Joseph has been a regular in my cheap-PG play section throughout the first round against the Pacers.  He had 15 points and 20.4 fantasy points in Game 6 and has at least 19 fantasy points in five of the six games in the series.  He did lay an egg in Game 4 when he totaled only 4.2 fantasy points, but he has been very good in the rest of the series and remains the best way to go cheap at PG for this weekend.∗∗∗
