High Value PG

Jamal Murray, DEN vs DET ($6,500): Murray has been over value in three straight and entering a great matchup on Thursday. The Pistons are 24th against the position in their last 15 games. Murray needs 27.5 fantasy points to hit value in this contest. Based on his recent play, the matchup, and the position the Nuggets find themselves in, Murray should have another strong outing where he’s over 30 fantasy points. ***

Fred VanVleet, TOR at IND ($4,600): VanVleet had 27.2 fantasy points against the Nets on Tuesday. He’s loved this matchup in two games this season, averaging 32.4 fantasy points in those contests. With Norman Powell unlikely to play, VanVleet could get hit number called upon a bit more. The Raptors have the best bench in the league and play of VanVleet is a big reason why. He’ll be over 20 fantasy points. ***

Darren Collison, IND vs TOR ($4,600): Collison has been held under 20 fantasy points in his last two games. He needs 19.5 fantasy points to hit value on Thursday. He’s still coming off the bench and his minutes have no climbed too much, which is a bit concerning. But at this salary, he’s a nice low cost option who will be over value given his talent and role in Indiana. ***
