High Value PG

Spencer Dinwiddie, BKN at OKC ($6,200): Dinwiddie has been up-and-down in his last four. He was up against the Pistons, contributing 29.3 fantasy points in Sunday’s contest. D’Angelo Russell is still playing limited minutes and isn’t exactly contributing in those minutes, which means Dinwiddie is still the top option in Brooklyn. The Thunder defense is much better with Andre Roberson back in the lineup, but they can be prone to giving up big game against opposing point guards. I like Dinwiddie to at least hit value. ***

De’Aaron Fox, SAC at ORL ($5,700): Fox has been over value in his last two games, including a 32.1 fantasy point performance against the Hornets on Monday. Given the matchup, I’m not worried about Fox on the back-to-back. The Magic are 27th against the position in their last 15 games. Fox has hit value in his last two back-to-back games. The Kings are committed to this youth movement, which means Fox should continue to see big minutes and usage. ****

Dejounte Murray, SA vs CLE ($4,800): It looks like Murray will be the starting point guard in San Antonio moving forward. He had 30.4 fantasy points against the Pacers as the starter on Sunday. He’s been better as the starter than coming off the bench, hitting value in 60 percent of games in which he’s started. The Cavaliers are a mess right now and they should be taken advantage of until they prove that can hold a team under 148 points. ****
