High Value PG

Shaun Livingston – Golden State Warriors ($3000): Steph Curry is doubtful for tonight’s game which means Livingston will get the keys to the offense, at least to start the game. I’m sure he will try and get Durant involved as much as possible. Livingston is not a lock to put up mass fantasy points though and the Warriors move the ball so much that Livingston doesn’t pile up assists, even when the offense is clicking. But for the bare minimum he’s worth a shot.

Tony Parker – San Antonio Spurs ($4000): Parker got the day off yesterday and tonight’s game involves a potential playoff opponent, so it’s feasible that Parker gets some decent run. But who really knows with Pop? He could give Parker something in the 15-18 range, so it’s buyer beware here. If he gets the run he should be a solid play.

Ian Clark – Golden State Warriors ($3500): Clark has seen time at the point this season and he likely will see increased minutes if Steph Curry sits out tonight. Clark has shown best DFS chops of all the Warriors’ young players, and he’s definitely able to score in bunches. It’s possible he sees more floor time than Livingston.

Shane Mack – Utah Jazz ($4000): Mack has been a bit disappointing with George Hill sidelined, and many thought he would have a few games where he exceeded value. He’s been solid but unspectacular while getting more minutes recently. It’s unknown if Hill will play tonight, but if he doesn’t Mack is a solid option to get you right around value, and he could finally turn it up against Portland, who like to play fast.
