Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, we pose a question to a rotating panel of ESPN fantasy basketball experts to gauge their thoughts on a hot topic. Todays contributors are ESPN Fantasys Kyle Soppe and Joe Kaiser, and DFS expert Renee Miller.Jrue Holiday is set to make his season debut Friday. His overall fantasy game is comparable to what weve seen from Jeff Teague and Dennis Schroder this season, including the fact that all three come with significant question marks. Rank these three for the remainder of the season, factoring in games played, and explain your reasoning.Kyle Soppe: Despite all three of these point guards being very capable of producing strong fantasy numbers, I feel reasonably good about Schroder leading this trio. He was my highest-ranked of these three coming into the season based on my thoughts that he would thrive with a significant minutes uptick. And with more than 16 points and 6 assists a night, he has done nothing to be knocked off the top spot. Give me Teague over Holiday for the rest of the season, but not because hes the more talented player -- I dont think he is -- but rather for his raised floor. You know exactly what youre going to get from Teague, and you can feel good about getting that production for the entirety of the season (he has played in 95.8 percent of games since the beginning of the 2011-12 season). Holiday is capable of stuffing the stat sheet as well, but considering that he has missed 118 games over the last three-plus seasons and has serious family concerns, there is no reason to roll the dice for a marginal statistical bump at best. So its Schroder, Teague, Holiday for me the rest of the way.Joe Kaiser: Youre right, these three point guards are very comparable, but if I had to rank them 1-3, my order would be Holiday, Teague, then Schroder. The reasoning here isnt very complicated: While all three average right around 14-16 points, 2-3 rebounds and 6 assists per game, Holiday has a slight advantage over the others from 3-point range, and his career mark of 1.4 steals per game is narrowly ahead of Teague (1.2) and well ahead of Schroder, who surprisingly has never averaged more than 0.9 SPG in a season and is at 0.5 SPG as a starter this season. While Teague comes close to Holiday, what concerns me is his cold shooting on his new team in Indiana. A career 44.6-percent shooter, the 28-year-old is at 39.3 percent in his first 12 games as a Pacer, and the further we get into the season, the more that may be a lasting issue.One other factor to consider in all this is health, and thats where Teague and Schroder do have an advantage over the injury-prone Holiday, who has played in more than 65 games just once in the last five seasons. If that scares you away from the Pelicans point guard, Teague and Schroder might be better options to turn to since theyre safer bets to last the whole season.Renee Miller: Im not a person who likes to predict the distant future. Instead, I use the best information currently available to make good decisions in fantasy sports for today. If that decision involves picking up Holiday in a season-long league, Id make sure there are no significant costs associated with it. Ive always liked Holiday as a player, but he has a hard time staying healthy, missing around half the season in 2013-14 and 2014-15, and starting just 23 games last year.Given that, and the fact that when they do play, these three point guards put up similar numbers (16 points, 3 boards, 6 dimes, 1.5 swipes), Im making my decision between Schroder and the guy he used to back up in Atlanta, Teague, based on team factors. Atlanta plays at the fastest pace (fifth in the league), has the best effective field goal percentage (third in the league, important for assists) and is the best team of the three in terms of offensive and defensive efficiency. Together, those factors put Schroder in the best position to succeed long-term, but in DFS, I very much consider all three guards to be price- and matchup-dependent plays. Charlie Morton Jersey .

South Africa 295 for 4 (de Kock 178, Boland 3-67) beat Australia 294 for 9 (Bailey 74, Phehlukwayo 4-44) by six wickets Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsQuinton de Kock became the holder of South Africas second-highest individual score in ODI cricket with a career-best 178 as his side eased to a series opening victory over Australia. De Kock steered South Africa to the third-highest successful chase at SuperSport Park and ensured they drew first blood in a weekend of clashes against Australia. Sandwiched between ODIs on Friday and Sunday is a Rugby Championship fixture on Saturday. All the matches take place on the Highveld, de Kocks stomping ground, and on Friday night, he owned it.None of the Australian bowlers were spared de Kocks aggression. He took on pace and spin, anything on the pads or overpitched, the short ball and the wide ball. His was an innings that started with impeccable timing and placement and turned into belligerent bludgeoning, especially on the leg side. More than two-thirds of de Kocks runs came in that area, including nine of his eleven sixes and he made Australias 294 appear utterly inadequate.On a fairly flat pitch and a fast outfield, Australia should have breached 300 and, given their start, could have been eyeing many more. Australia were 88 for 1 in the 13th over before Andile Phehlukwayo pulled them back. He took 3 for 16 in four overs and finished with a career-best 4 for 44 in just his second ODI to lead a seam attack whose experience trio of Dale Steyn, Wayne Parnell and Kagiso Rabada all had off days.The South African seamers inconsistencies in length suited Australias almost-reckless approach. Five of their top six got starts but only George Bailey converted his. He scored a third half-century in four innings and shared in a 79-run seventh wicket stand with John Hastings, whose fifty was his first in international cricket, to take Australia close to 300 but not close enough to challenge South Africa.De Kock was authoritative from the start. He flicked a Hastings delivery on the legs into the stands and followed up with a flog through point to announce his intent. South Africas fifty came up inside seven overs and Rilee Rossouw, de Kocks opening partner who filled in for an ill Hashim Amla, had only contributed 17 of those runs.Rossouw did not remain an understudy for too long. He plundered three boundaries off each of Mitchell Marsh and Scott Boland to catch up to de Kock and the pair were on 43 each, with the score on 87 after 10 overs.De Kocks fifty came first, off 38 balls, with a pull off Travis Head. Rossouws followed in much quieter fashion, a single, but it came off the 36th ball. At 120 without loss after 15 overs, Australia were all but out of the contest and they had not even introduced their best bowler.ddddddddddddAdam Zampa was brought on in the 18th over, after Rossouw and de Kock had destroyed Scott Bolands figures by taking 18 runs off his fourth over, and had immediate success. Zampas first ball was a legbreak, Rossouw brought out the reverse sweep and was trapped in front.De Kock was on 82 when Rossouw was dismissed and had got there by playing the ball late and using deft, albeit powerful touches, but when Faf du Plessis joined him, he switched gears. He thumped a low full toss from Daniel Worrall to mid off, in a rare example of playing a shot down the ground instead of square, and then reached his hundred, off 74 balls, with an almighty pull over midwicket.Zampa came under attack as well and de Kock took three boundaries off his fourth over and three sixes off the first three balls of his sixth, With each one, there was a suspicion de Kock might emulate Herschelle Gibbs six sixes in an over. Gibbs was part of the commentary team, and looked on as de Kock went past his own highest score of 175 by drilling Marsh through the covers. Those were the last runs de Kock scored before holing out, 11 runs short of overtaking Gary Kirsten, who holds South Africas highest individual score of 188.It was left to Farhaan Behardien and David Miller to finish off after du Plessis and JP Duminy were dismissed cheaply. The wickets wont matter much to South Africa after they won with 13.4 overs to spare.De Kocks performance completely overshadowed Phehlukwayo, but he emerged as South Africas best bowler on the night. He broke through at a crucial time, when Aaron Finch flicked a short ball to fine leg where Wayne Parnell caught it low down.. Four deliveries later, Phehlukwayo had Steve Smith trapped lbw, missing an attempted glance. And three overs after that, had Marsh caught behind by a diving de Kock.Imran Tahir, the only other South African to concede at under six runs an over, had Travis Head stumped by a googly and Australia were five-down just over halfway in their innings and in danger of not batting out their overs. Baileys fifty was his third in four innings while Hastings was his first against a South African attack that, Phehlukwayo and Tahir aside, struggled for consistency.That may not be South Africas main concern ahead of the Sunday game though. Instead, they will be closely monitoring Steyn. Although he bowled his full complement of overs, Steyn left the field twice and was seen clutching the shoulder he broke last summer several times.
