High Value PG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Tomas Satoransky (at CLE – $6,000): Needs 27.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 46.75 fantasy points against San Antonio. Satoransky has been good more often than not as a member of the starting lineup. The minutes and opportunities are always there for him. And now he gets the Cavaliers. This is a great matchup for him because the Cavaliers are a great matchup for literally every team in the league. Satoransky will get you value if nothing else in this game. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Derrick White (vs PHO – $5,700): Needs 26.2 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 29.25 fantasy points against Washington. Speaking of favorable matchups. Derrick White gets the Suns. If anyone ever needs a game to showcase their talent, it comes against the Suns. And White is already a reliable option on most nights. And he’s shown a high ceiling throughout his time as the starter. This should be an easy night at the office for White. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Shabazz Napier (vs CHI – $4,900): Needs 22.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 34 fantasy points against Boston. It’s a back-to-back for the Nets but they get to play the Bulls so does it really count? Napier will continue to get the minutes and scoring opportunities with the injuries to the Nets guards. And the Bulls are an easy team to take advantage of. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.
