High Value PG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Malcolm Brogdon (vs WAS – $5,700): Needs 26.6 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 30.5 fantasy points against Brooklyn. I’ve loved Brogdon all season and I continue to love him heading into this game. He had 33.75 fantasy points against the Wizards on Feb. 2. He’s been fantastic for the majority of this season and the Wizards continue to be a great matchup given their defense. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Shabazz Napier (vs DEN – $5,300): Needs 24.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 29.5 fantasy points against Milwaukee.Napier is now in the starting lineup which means he’s surrounded by better players but does take some opportunities away from him as he has to share the court with Russell. But he remains at a good salary given recent production and minutes. It’s a tough matchup because the Nuggets are very good but Napier will get you value if nothing else. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a good ceiling.

Tim Frazier (at CHI – $4,100): Needs 19.4 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 8.75 fantasy points against Indiana. I’m torn between Frazier and Jackson. Jackson is the starter but Frazier still plays solid minutes and has shown a higher ceiling recently. One of them will have a big game because it’s the Bulls and they are an easy team to take advantage of. I’m just unsure which one will get it done. Diagnosis: Fairly reliable with a high ceiling.
