DFS: Friday's Point Guard Value Rankings
Here are theScore's point guard value rankings for Friday, December 4:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Mo Williams (CLE) | at NO | 9 |
| Reggie Jackson (DET) | vs. MIL | 9 |
| John Wall (WAS) | vs. PHX | 8 |
| Deron Williams (DAL) | vs. HOU | 8 |
| Brandon Knight (PHX) | at WAS | 8 |
While Cavaliers PG Kyrie Irving continues to heal from a knee injury, Mo Williams and his low price tag are a hot commodity in tournament games, but his value on this slate will be in cash games against a bad Pelicans defense.
Deron Williams and Wall play in favorable matchups against teams who allow the highest FG%; they represent superb cash game plays.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jeff Teague (ATL) | vs. LAL | 7 |
| Jarrett Jack (BKN) | at NY | 7 |
| Patrick Beverley (HOU) | at DAL | 6 |
| Ish Smith (NO) | vs. CLE | 5 |
| Jerryd Bayless (MIL) | at DET | 5 |
After battling injuries, Teague has returned to his normal self, averaging 16.7 PPG while dishing out 6.4 assists; a double-double is in play against a feeble Lakers team.
Smith and Bayless have low price tags and are worth a flier in GPPs, as they have shown promise at times this year.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jose Calderon (NY) | vs. BKN | 4 |
| D'Angelo Russell (LAL) | at ATL | 3 |
| Michael Carter-Williams (MIL) | at DET | 3 |
| Jrue Holiday (NO) | vs. CLE | 2 |
| Lou Williams (LAL) | at ATL | 1 |
The Knicks have improved drastically over the past month, becoming the best team to defend the 3-ball, though their PG Calderon is worthy of a fade in every DFS format due to a poor 8.1/2.3/3.4 stat line. The other four PGs possess extremely low ceilings and should be faded as well.
