High Value PG

Darren Collison, IND at NO ($6,100): Collison rejoined the Pacers starting lineup on Monday, finishing with 37.8 fantasy points against the Lakers. He was really finding his groove prior to the knee injury in early February. As a starter, he’s been over value in 13 straight games. The Pelicans are 25th against the position in their last 15 games and on a back-to-back. Everything looks set for Collison to have a big night on Wednesday. ****

Cameron Payne, CHI vs DEN ($5,500): Payne finished with 24.2 fantasy points, making his second straight start against the Knicks on Monday. Kris Dunn has already been ruled out, which means Payne should pick up another start. He needs 23.5 fantasy points to reach value on Wednesday. The Nuggets are 29th against the position in their last 15 games. Payne will get the playing time to produce and the matchup is a good one. ***

Rajon Rondo, NO vs IND ($5,400): Rondo had 55.8 fantasy points against the Mavericks on Tuesday. He benefitted from the absence of Jrue Holiday and the fact that he raises his game when facing a former team. If Holiday misses Wednesday’s contest, that bodes well for the value of Rondo. Ian Clark is a nice low cost option if Holiday is out as well. The Pacers are 20th against the position in their last 15 games. ****
