High Value PG

Players costing $6,667 or under

Shabazz Napier (at BOS – $4,900): Needs 21 fantasy points. Napier had 24.4 fantasy points against the Knicks on Jan. 25. His minutes will continue to go up with Dinwiddie out of the lineup and he’s proven that he can get buckets in a hurry. The Celtics are a tough matchup but the minutes and opportunities are going to be there for him in this game. Diagnosis: Reliable with a good ceiling.

Patrick Beverley (vs ATL – $4,600): Needs 19.7 fantasy points. Beverley was up to 44 fantasy points against the Kings on Sunday. He’s played well since rejoining the starting lineup and has had some monster games as a result. The Clippers are on a back-to-back but it’s the Hawks so things could be worse for the Clippers in this one. The minutes continue to be there for Beverley and he remains at a great salary. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.

Tony Parker (vs NY – $3,700): Needs 15.9 fantasy points. This is all about the circumstances as it’s possible that Kemba Walker doesn’t play in this contest. And if Kemba Walker is out of the lineup, Parker will probably draw the start and definitely see extra minutes. And even if Walker does play, the Hornets should have a pretty easy time against a Knicks team on a back-to-back to where Parker could see a bit of extra run regardless. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling if Kemba is out.
