High Value PG

Players costing $6,250 or under

Tyus Jones (vs TOR – $5,700): Needs 27.5 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 37.25 fantasy points against Oklahoma City. The minutes are still there in a big way for Jones and he should continue to deliver given the circumstances. The Raptors are a tough matchup if they care to try but they have nothing to play for and the Timberwolves are giving some effort heading into next season. The circumstances are still there for Jones to deliver. Diagnosis: Very reliable with a high ceiling.

Trey Burke (vs PHO – $5,300): Needs 25 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 36.5 fantasy points against Memphis. You can go with Burke or Brunson or pair the two and watch the points roll in. You’re also about to read a lot about this Suns/Mavericks game because there is going to be no defense played in this game and there are a lot of great players at great salaries in this game. Burke is one of those guys. Diagnosis: Very reliable with high ceiling.

Ian Clark (vs GS – $4,600): Needs 21.7 fantasy points. LAST GAME – 51.5 fantasy points against Sacramento. Clark has continued to provide great production for the Pelicans at a very good price. The Warriors can be a tough matchup but I don’t know how much the Warriors are going to care in this matchup. And I know the Pelicans need something out of their backcourt and Clark has been delivering in a big way for them. Diagnosis: Reliable with a high ceiling.
