High Value PG

Terry Rozier, BOS vs ATL ($6,500): Rozier sneaks in just under the average salary and that’s good news for his value on Friday. If Kyrie Irving misses his second straight game, Rozier should be well over value once again. Even if Irving is back, Rozier has proven to be a strong contributor off the bench with Marcus Smart out of the lineup. He needs 26.9 fantasy points to hit value on Friday. Based on the matchup, he should be around 30 fantasy points. If Irving his out, that number will only go up. ****

Goran Dragic, MIA at PHI ($6,300): The newly minted All-Star has been over value in his last two games. Prior to that, he had missed value in four straight. He needs 26.1 fantasy points to hit value on Friday. The Sixers are 12th against the position in their last 15 games. This is a decent enough matchup for Dragic and I’m hoping that he’ll get an All-Star boost on Friday. I think he’ll be around value. ***

Ricky Rubio, UTA at PHO ($5,900): Rubio has been 10-plus fantasy points over value in his last three games. That includes a 45.5 fantasy point effort against the Warriors on Tuesday. He hasn’t been great this season, hitting value in just 55 percent of games. But he’s playing well right now and he’s going up against the Suns. His recent play and the matchup projects him to have another strong game. He needs 24.5 fantasy points to hit value. I’m cautiously optimistic that he’ll at least his value. ***
