High Value PG

Tyler Dorsey, ATL at BOS ($4,500): Isaiah Taylor is the starter, but Dorsey has been the more productive player in recent contests. He’s been 11-plus fantasy points over value in his last three games. He needs 19.6 fantasy points to reach value on Sunday. Expect him over 20 fantasy points without much issue. ***

Cory Joseph, IND at CHA ($3,500): The theory behind this pick is that Joseph is seeing decent minutes off the Pacers bench and should see around 25 minutes once again. The Pacers will look to rest starters as their playoff spot is secure. Minutes count for a lot in these games and if he ends up playing close to 30 minutes, he can have a big game. ***

Quinn Cook, GSW at PHO ($6,300): Cook had 33.1 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Saturday. He posted 39.8 fantasy points against the Suns a week ago. The Warriors are playing him alongside their All-Stars as they try to get an offensive rhythm heading into the playoffs. Always take advantage of the Suns. ***

Shelvin Mack, ORL at TOR ($5,400): The Raptors are first against the position in their last 15 games. But Toronto doesn’t have a high compete level right now as they have nothing to play for. Meanwhile, Mack is getting more playing time off the bench and is trying to make an impression heading into next season. Expect him around value on Sunday. ***
