High Value PG

Dennis Smith Jr., DAL vs DEN ($5,600): Smith Jr. has been below his 27 FPPG season average in his last two games, but a matchup against the Nuggets should put him back on track. The Nuggets are 25th against the position in their last 15 games. Smith Jr.’s main value comes in his scoring, but he can put up numbers in all categories. He was battling a stomach virus on Saturday, which led to a decrease in minutes. If he’s healthy and back up to his 28 minutes, I like him to go for at least 30 fantasy points. ****

Jamal Murray, DEN at DAL ($5,100): Murray is coming off his best fantasy game of the season, giving owners 44.5 fantasy points against the Lakers. Replicating that performance might be tough, but he was over 30 fantasy points in two of the four games against Dallas last year. He’s a guy who knows he needs to step up with Nikola Jokic sidelined for a few games and he can put up numbers in every category. ****

Darren Collison, IND vs NY ($5,700): Collison had 40.75 fantasy points against the Knicks a month ago and is coming off a 34.75 point performance against the Raptors. He’s been Robin to Victor Oladipo’s Batman for the majority of the season and a matchup against the Knicks and their below average defense should see him provide a big scoring night for the Pacers and fantasy owners. *****
