High Value PG

Reggie Jackson, DET vs WAS ($4,800): Jackson played 28 minutes on Monday against the Lakers, which is a good sign for his value moving forward. He finished with 31.25 fantasy points in that one. If he continues to play near 30 minutes a night, he’s going to be the better option over Ish Smith for $100 less. The Wizards a sputtering right now and John Wall may or may not be back for this one. Jackson should do enough to get you the 22.5 fantasy points he needs for value. ***

Patty Mills, SA vs OKC ($4,500): Mill has outplayed Dejounte Murray in recent contests and is coming off a 30.25 fantasy point performance against the Wizards on Tuesday. His three-point shooting gives him the edge over Murray in this matchup as the Thunder struggle to defend the three-point line. Murray has the higher ceiling if you’re willing to spend a little extra money, but the Spurs are a tough team to trust outside of Aldridge, who may not play. Proceed with caution. ***

Cory Joseph, IND at SAC ($4,200): Like Murray and Mills, Joseph and Darren Collison are in the same boat. Joseph is giving you more value on most night, but Collison has the higher ceiling given his usage rate. Joseph needs 19.7 fantasy points to reach value on Thursday. The matchup is a good one and he should be over that number. ***
