Here are theScore's point guard value rankings for Wednesday, December 2:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Stephen Curry (GS) | at CHA | 9 |
| Derrick Rose (CHI) | vs. DEN | 8 |
| John Wall (WAS) | vs. LAL | 8 |
| Reggie Jackson (DET) | vs. PHO | 8 |
| Kemba Walker (CHA) | vs. GS | 7 |
Curry should be able to improve on his .445 rate from beyond the arc Wednesday night against a Charlotte team that struggles against the 3-ball.
The Nuggets rank second worst in the NBA in 3-point percentage against (.387), making a strong case for Rose to be fired up in tournaments.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Kyle Lowry (TOR) | at ATL | 7 |
| George Hill (IND) | at LAC | 7 |
| Brandon Knight (PHO) | at DET | 7 |
| Chris Paul (LAC) | vs. IND | 6 |
| Ish Smith (NO) | at HOU | 6 |
Lowry continues to fill the stat sheet each night, and a double-double could be in the cards versus the Hawks. Knight looks to decimate a Detroit defense that has allowed 100+ points in two of its past three games.
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jeff Teague (ATL) | vs. TOR | 5 |
| Tony Parker (SA) | vs. MIL | 5 |
| Michael Carter-Williams (MIL) | at SA | 4 |
| D'Angelo Russell (LAL) | at WAS | 4 |
| Jerryd Bayless (MIL) | at SA | 4 |
Teague battles an exceptional Toronto defense and can't be trusted to return value while Bucks PGs Carter-Williams and Bayless will struggle to muster up any offense against a Spurs team that allows just 89.8 points per game.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Ty Lawson (HOU) | vs. NO | 3 |
| Jose Calderon (NYK) | vs. PHI | 3 |
| Emmanuel Mudiay (DEN) | at CHI | 2 |
| Patrick Beverley (HOU) | vs. NO | 2 |
| T.J. McConnell (PHI) | at NY | 1 |
Lawson hasn't made the impact the Rockets were hoping he would, but is a great contrarian option against an atrocious Pelicans defense.
