High Salary PG

Jrue Holiday, NO at LAC ($8,200): Holiday has been over value in eight straight. He needs 38.5 fantasy points to hit value on Tuesday. He had 48.75 fantasy point against the Clippers on Jan. 28. The Clippers are different team since then, but that was a game following DeMarcus Cousins’ injury. Expect 40-plus fantasy points from Holiday as he puts up a big scoring night to go along with a handful of assists. ****

Lou Williams, LAC vs NO ($7,700): Williams has been at 36 fantasy points in his last two contests and that’s the number he needs to his value on Tuesday. Given the matchup, he should be over 40 fantasy points in this one. The Pelicans struggle against perimeter players and Williams is the biggest scoring and playmaking threat on the Clippers. This projects to be the highest scoring game of the night and it’ll mean big things for Williams’ value. *****

Dennis Smith Jr., DAL vs DEN ($6,600): The Denver defense is better with Paul Millsap in the lineup, but they still struggle on the road. Furthermore, they are 29th against point guards in their last 15 games. Smith Jr. is coming off a 41.25 fantasy point performance against the Pelicans on Sunday. He’s averaging 31.3 fantasy points in three games against the Nuggets this season. That number would put at value on Tuesday, but expect him over value in this one. ****
