Monday's Point Guard Value Rankings
Here are the point guard value rankings for Monday, March 7:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Rajon Rondo (SAC) | at NO | 10 |
| Kemba Walker (CHA) | vs. MIN | 9 |
| Ricky Rubio (MIN) | at CHA | 9 |
| Chris Paul (LAC) | at DAL | 8 |
| Derrick Rose (CHI) | vs. MIl | 8 |
Rondo doesn't have the high-end scoring capability, but his well-rounded skill-set -- and his assists skills in particular -- make him an excellent play against teams with holes up and down their defense. Rondo has recorded 34 points, 25 assists and 11 rebounds in two games against the Pelicans this season.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Kyrie Irving (CLE) | vs. MEM | 7 |
| Jrue Holiday (NO) | vs. SAC | 7 |
| Mike Conley (MEM) | at CLE | 7 |
| Jerryd Bayless (MIL) | at CHI | 6 |
| George Hill (IND) | vs. SA | 5 |
| Elfrid Payton (ORL) | at GS | 4 |
| Deron Williams (DAL) | vs. LAC | 4 |
Irving's production -- and price -- has slowly increased as the season rolls on, but he doesn't have a profoundly different outlook than lesser-owned PGs like Holiday and Conley.
Irving's role alongside LeBron James on a conference-leading Cavs team bumps up his ownership in DFS among casual players. Players looking to make their lineups stand out from the pack would be better served by Holiday or Conley on Monday.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Tony Parker (SA) | at IND | 3 |
| Steph Curry (GS) | vs. ORL | 2 |
| Jeremy Lin (CHA) | vs. MIN | 2 |
Curry will still find a way to fill the scoresheet, but after a relatively subdued outing against the Lakers on Sunday, it's clear that his sore ankle is hampering his game. He's not a good bet to return elite value against his insane DFS salary.
