DFS: Thursday's Point Guard Value Rankings
Here are theScore's point guard value rankings for Thursday, November 19:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Mo Williams (CLE) | vs. MIL | 10 |
| Stephen Curry (GS) | at LAC | 9 |
| Darren Collison (SAC) | at MIA | 8 |
Williams has been doing a remarkable job of filling in for the injured Kyrie Irving (knee), averaging 15.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 0.6 steals while making at least two 3-pointers in four of his past five games.
Collison (hamstring) returned to the Kings' lineup Wednesday, and he'll remain a bargain if he's able to play in the second half of the back-to-back in relief of the fatigued Rajon Rondo.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Rajon Rondo (SAC) | at MIA | 7 |
| Michael Carter-Williams (MIL) | at CLE | 5 |
Despite averaging a near-triple-double for the season, Rondo gets bumped down to this second tier. The return of Collison will cut into the 45.5 minutes per game he's averaged over his past five starts coming into Wednesday. Carter-Williams (ankle) remains a high-risk, high-reward play, but at his price the risk can be hard to justify.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Chris Paul (LAC) | vs. GS | 3 |
Paul (groin) is considered probable for Thursday, but considering he's scored more than 20 points just once this season while healthy, he can be faded. His PPG, APG, RPG, SPG, and shooting percentages are all down from their career rates, and he's even playing fewer minutes. It's too early to write him off, but fantasy owners should wait for him to level out.
