Saturday's Point Guard Value Rankings
Here are the point guard value rankings for Saturday, March 5:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
---|---|---|
Ricky Rubio (MIN) | at BKN | 10 |
John Wall (WAS) | vs. IND | 9 |
Rajon Rondo (SAC) | at SA | 8 |
Norris Cole (NO) | vs. UTA | 8 |
Reggie Jackson (DET) | at NY | 8 |
Rubio derives much of his value from his teammates' success because so much of his fantasy production is built on assists. Brooklyn's defense is weak from top-to-bottom. Not only is Rubio a solid play but he also makes a nice combo-play with ascendant rookie Karl-Anthony Towns in the post.
Best of the Rest
NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
---|---|---|
Chris Paul (LAC) | vs. ATL | 7 |
Kyrie Irving (CLE) | vs. BOS | 7 |
Donald Sloan (BKN) | at MIN | 7 |
Shelvin Mack (UTA) | at NO | 7 |
Derrick Rose (CHI) | vs. HOU | 6 |
Jeff Teague (ATL) | at LAC | 6 |
Jrue Holiday (NO) | vs. UTA | 6 |
Paul has been easily exceeding expectations during his recent 10-game run. As a result, he has driven his price tag frustratingly higher. He still has a reasonable chance of success, but there are certainly stronger plays.
NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
---|---|---|
Tony Parker (SA) | vs. SAC | 5 |
Patty Mills (SA) | vs. SAC | 5 |
Dennis Schroder (ATL) | at LAC | 5 |
Patrick Beverley (HOU) | at CHI | 5 |
George Hill (IND) | at WAS | 5 |
Darren Collison (SAC) | at SA | 4 |
Isaiah Thomas (BOS) | at CLE | 4 |
Nothing to See Here
NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
---|---|---|
Trey Burke (UTA) | at NO | 3 |
Jose Calderon (NY) | vs. DET | 2 |
Burke has seen his playing time dwindle with the arrival of Mack to the team's guard rotation. And once again, Calderon leads the pack, without a doubt, of players you can live without.
