High Value SG

Jordan Crawford – New Orleans Pelicans ($4100): The Pelicans will be without Anthony Davis and Boogie Cousins, so Crawford should again see increased usage. He had 16 shots against Denver with Cousins out last game and let’s not forget the revenge angle, as Crawford goes up against his former Warriors team tonight.

J.J. Redick – Los Angeles Clippers ($3600): Austin Rivers is out and Jamal Crawford looks out of sorts. Meanwhile, Redick has been filling it up for the Clippers, with 37 FP in his last game and 30 or more FP in three of his last four. The Clippers still need to win to get home court for the first round of the playoffs, so expect heavy minutes for Redick again tonight.

Evan Turner – Portland Trailblazers ($3600): Turner has had four straight games of 20 or more FP and he remains very reasonably priced at just $3600. He shuld see about 25 minutes tonight in a game Portland badly needs to win. He’s averaged a bit over 20 FP per game against the Jazz this season, so he looks like an excellent value play tonight.

Jonathon Simmons – San Antonio Spurs ($4300): Simmons should again see major minutes assuming that both Green and Ginobili sit. He hasn’t exactly dominated since he’s been starting, but he has been close to value, something that should happen again tonight against the Clippers.
