High Value PG

Players costing $6,667 or under

Reggie Jackson (vs CHI – $6,400): Needs 26.8 fantasy points. Jackson has been over 30 fantasy points in three straight games. The Bulls aren’t going to offer much resistance and he should be able to make it four straight on Friday. He’s scoring the ball well and doing enough in other areas to boost his value. He’s at a good salary on Friday given the matchup. Diagnosis: Good ceiling, good salary, and a great matchup.

J.J. Barea (at LAL – $5,900): Needs 24.7 fantasy points. Barea continues to look like last year’s version of himself, even in limited minutes. He had 36.6 fantasy points in 18 minutes against the Rockets on Nov. 18. The Lakers are on a back-to-back and their defense has been spotty all season. Meanwhile, the Mavericks are rolling right now thanks to Barea’s contributions off the bench. His salary is way up, but not quite high enough given how good he’s playing. Diagnosis: Less affordable, but still reliable with a good ceiling.

Ryan Arcidiacono (at DET – $5,500): Needs 23 fantasy points. Arcidiacono was at 48 fantasy points against the Bucks on Nov. 28. I’m not sure what to make of this current streak he’s on, but the Bulls need something at point guard and he’s provided it thus far. The minutes are there, if nothing else. He’s doing a bit of everything and the Pistons are a good matchup. Diagnosis: He’s hot right now and the minutes are there. But so are the warning signs.
