High Value PG

Jamal Murray, DEN vs OKC ($4,900): Murray and Mudiay have split time at the point guard position this year, but Murray is the starter so he’s in this position over Mudiay. If you want to go with Mudiay, who costs the same, I wouldn’t be opposed. Point guards have killed OKC this year as Westbrook doesn’t bother to defend them off the ball. The Nuggets moving and cutting offense plays right into Westbrook’s weakness’ and should lead to good looks for Murray or Mudiay. ****

De’Aaron Fox, SAC vs PHI ($4,900): Fox helped lead the Kings to a big victory over the Thunder, giving owners 24 fantasy points. He’s still the back-up behind George Hill, but he’s playing more like the starter and if the Kings want to be competitive now and in the future, they’d be wise to give him more minutes. The 76ers have the 11th ranked defense, but have struggled defending quick guards who can shoot. ****

Garrett Temple, SAC vs PHI ($3,500): Temple is averaging 17.1 FPPG this season and plays well with increased minutes. Assuming he plays over 20 minutes, he should be around his average. He represents a cheap option if you’re looking to load up on the multiple stars available on Thursday. ***
