Saturday's Point Guard Value Rankings

Chris Humphreys / USA TODAY Sports

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.
