High Value PG

Isaiah Thomas, LAL vs POR ($5,700): Thomas has been over 30 fantasy points in his last two games. He needs 26.6 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. If Brandon Ingram is out, they’ll once again need his scoring off the bench. The Blazers are eighth against the position in their last 15 games, but Thomas is looking as healthy as he’s looked all season in recent contests. He should push 30 fantasy point once again thanks to his scoring and passing. ***

Dwyane Wade, MIA vs PHO ($5,400): After going over 30 fantasy points in two straight, Wade was down to 18 fantasy points against the Pistons on Saturday. This is a great opportunity for him to bounce back as the Suns still have the worst defense in the league and are on a back-to-back. The most positive sign for Wade’s value is that his minutes are around 25 thanks to injuries to Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington. ***

George Hill, CLE vs DET ($5,000): Hill has been up-and-down in recent contests. He had 28.5 fantasy points against the Nuggets on Saturday. The Pistons are 18th against the position in their last 15 games. Hill puts up decent numbers in all categories and his rebounding totals could see a decent jump with Tristan Thompson out of the lineup. He needs 23.4 fantasy points to hit value and should be over 25 fantasy points in this contest. ***
