High Value PG
Darren Collison, IND vs ORL ($5,900): Collison had 46.5 fantasy points on Friday against the Cavaliers. He made most of his value with six steals. The Pacers are on a back-to-back, but Collison has hit value in seven of ten back-to-back games this season. The matchup helps as the Magic are a poor defensive team. It’s unlikely that he comes up with six steals again, but his offensive numbers should be fine and as long as he can come up with a couple of steals, he should be over value. He needs 26.2 fantasy points to hit value on Saturday. ***
Tyler Johnson, MIA vs CHA ($5,100): It looked like Johnson was going to play on Thursday against the Kings, but ended up being a late scratch. Hopefully the extra days off means he’ll be able to go on Saturday. Assuming he plays, his salary is low enough and the matchup is good where I have no reservations in taking him. He needs 22.7 fantasy points to his value. As long as he plays over 20 minutes, that should be no problem for the Miami guard. ***
Terry Rozier, BOS at GS ($4,600): With Marcus Smart out for the next two weeks, Rozier will be the primary backup guard on the Celtics. He had 29.25 fantasy points against the Clippers on Wednesday. He struggled in the first game against the Warriors, posting 10 fantasy points in that contest. I don’t love the matchup for Rozier, but I do love the opportunities he’ll get. He needs 20.5 fantasy points to hit value. I think he’s a boom-or-bust guy, but you might inclined to take the risk. **
