Tuesday's Shooting Guard Value Rankings
Here are theScore's shooting guard value rankings for Tuesday, March 22:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Nicolas Batum (CHA) | at BKN | 10 |
| Dwyane Wade (MIA) | at NO | 9 |
| Josh Richardson (MIA) | at NO | 8 |
Batum is averaging 18.5 points, 6.8 assists, and 6.1 rebounds over his past 11 games coming into Tuesday. He's adding 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks over that time. He's a prime target in any matchup, but especially so against the lowly Nets.
Wade has been providing steady returns, despite zero contributions from 3-point range. Richardson is riskier than Wade, but he's a good GPP target at a significant discount.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| James Harden (HOU) | at OKC | 7 |
| Bojan Bogdanovic (BKN) | vs. CHA | 7 |
| Sean Kilpatrick (BKN) | vs. CHA | 7 |
| Lou Williams (LAL) | vs. MEM | 6 |
| Courtney Lee (CHA) | at BKN | 6 |
| Vince Carter (MEM) | at LAL | 5 |
Harden's listed as question with a foot injury. He's a must start against his former team if he's able to play, but be sure to triple check his status before lineups lock. Bogdanovic attempted his fewest field goals of his past three games his last time out. He still managed to take 16 shots.
Kilpatrick earned himself a new contract from the Nets, and with it comes more playing time. He's played no fewer than 21 minutes in each of his past five games.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Kobe Bryant (LAL) | vs. MEM | 3 |
Bryant has difficulty returning value at the best of times. He should be completely faded while nursing a shoulder injury, even with a favorable matchup.
