Punt Play of the Night: Garrett Temple, Washington Wizards ($3,900) vs. Sacramento Kings

Temple is probably the best bet to return value among the budget buy guards, as he’s been in the first five since Bradley Beal has been laid up with a leg injury.

That “promotion” doesn’t always guarantee him starters’ minutes, but against a tired Kings team that is second worst overall vs. 2-guards (where Temple shifts in Beal’s absence) the former LSU Tiger will receive a favorable opportunity to make his initial impression a good one.
