High Value PG
Quinn Cook, GS vs NO ($5,700): Cook’s salary has dipped following 25.75 fantasy points against the Thunder and 26.75 fantasy points against the Pacers. The Warriors have nothing to play for, but they are trying to get things figured out without Steph Curry for the first round. That does add some importance to their final few games. He needs 26.6 fantasy points to reach value on Saturday. Expect him around that number, especially against a team that ranks last against point guards in their last 15 games. ***
Jerian Grant, CHI vs BKN ($4,400): Grant is coming off a 38.75 fantasy point performance against the Celtics on Friday. He’s getting decent playing time again, which is important this time of the season. He needs 20.5 fantasy points to hit value on Saturday. As long as he plays 20-plus minutes, that number should not be a problem given the matchup. ***
Frank Ntilikina, NY vs MIL ($3,600): Ntilikina posted 25.5 fantasy points against the Heat on Friday. With Emmanuel Mudiay out of the lineup, the rookie is getting some minutes to prove himself heading into next season. He hasn’t exactly performed well in those minutes, but getting an opportunity means something when a lot teams are playing their 11th and 12th guys heading into next season. He’s not a risk at this price and could surprise with a good output. *
