High Salary PG

Kyrie Irving, BOS vs GS ($8,100): Irving didn’t seem to like the mask on Tuesday, but still managed 38.25 fantasy points in 29 minutes. His minutes will go up against the Warriors, as should his production. On a young team who haven’t played in too many important games, he’s the one guy you can count on to rise to the occasion. ****

Chris Paul, HOU at PHO ($7,100): Paul is scheduled to return on Thursday, but how effective he’ll be remains to be seen. He had 36 fantasy points in the one game he played this year. Fortunately, the Suns defense presents him with an opportunity to figure things out alongside Harden. *****

High Value PG

Terry Rozier, BOS vs GS ($4,700): Rozier was a non-factor against the Nets, but he’s the best of the bunch in terms of low salary point guards. It’s almost impossible for him to play as bad as he did against the Nets. He should be back around his 22.4 FPPG number. ***

Mike James, PHO vs HOU ($4,200): James has seen his minutes decrease after being moved to the bench, but Tyler Ulis isn’t exactly doing much as the starter. He’s reportedly been in trouble for maturity issues. Neither are a great option, but James has proven himself more capable throughout the season *
