Top Four Point Guards

  1. Chris Paul ($8,800) vs. Brooklyn Nets
  2. Kyrie Irving ($7,400) vs. Milwaukee Bucks
  3. George Hill ($6,800) vs. Houston Rockets
  4. Matthew Dellavedova ($6,400) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers

Rationale:

  • Brooklyn has been repeatedly victimized by Chris Paul, the NBA’s leader in steals at 2.8 per game this season. In 22 career appearances against the Nets, Paul has totaled 57 steals, for an average of 2.6 per game, along with 17.3 points, 10.8 assists and 5.2 rebounds per game, his most against a single opponent. Paul is shooting a career-high 40.2 percent from 3-point range and is facing a Brooklyn defense that is allowing opponents to shoot 37.5 percent from beyond the arc, the fourth-worst average in the league.
  • A pair of eight-assist performances in each of his last two games has raised the season average to 6.3 per game for Matthew Dellavedova, the most in Milwaukee. Dellavedova is facing Cleveland for the first time since signing as a free agent with Milwaukee, so he could be in line for a strong performance and is a nice value pick for FanDuel NBA purposes.
