DFS Guards to Consider
D'Angelo Russell - G, @ PHX ($8,000 FD, $8,200 DK)
D'Angelo Russell has really turned things up since arriving in Brooklyn. He is averaging a career-best 21 points and five assists per contest and has demonstrated that he will be a focal point for the team moving forward. With Phoenix struggling to stop anyone on defense, Russell should be an efficient option on Monday night.
Klay Thompson - G, vs. MIA ($7,200 FD, $6,900 DK)
Klay Thompson could have the potential to put up some fantasy points against a team that is struggling to defend three-pointers. The Miami Heat are giving up a little over eight shots from beyond the arc per game which should translate well for Thompson for obvious reasons. With his price much lower than that of Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, he could exceed his value on Monday night without breaking the bank.
Jaylen Brown - G, @ ATL ($5,700 FD, $6,000 DK)
Jaylen Brown has been playing well for the Celtics this season, especially since the unfortunate injury to Gordon Hayward. With an average of 15 points and nearly seven boards on the year, he should have a solid game against an injury-plagued Atlanta Hawks team that is also having issues on the defensive end.
Other DFS Guards to Consider: Mike James, Allen Crabbe, Marcus Smart, Tyler Johnson
DFS Forwards to Consider
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson - F, @ PHO ($6,700 FD, $5,900 DK)
My man Rondae Hollis-Jefferson has drastically improved from a season ago. He has nearly doubled his points per game average and also has been allotted the minutes needed to be an effective fantasy option. He will also gain more appeal if Trevor Booker, who is dealing with a lower-back issue, sits out once again.
T.J. Warren - F, vs. BKN ($6,200 FD, $5,700 DK)
Though the Suns have had their struggles this season, they do have some positives, with one of them being T.J. Warren. With the game against Brooklyn anticipated to be the highest-scoring game on the night, Warren has a chance of putting up some fantasy points. Though he was dealing with a concussion, he played fine against San Antonio on Sunday night, scoring 17 points on 7-for-18 from the field.
Jayson Tatum - F, @ ATL ($5,800 FD, $5,600 DK)
You really can't ask for anything more out of a rookie than what Jayson Tatum has brought to the Celtics this season. He has played well and has also stepped up since the injury to Gordon Hayward. Though the game against Atlanta is anticipated to be the lowest-scoring game on the limited schedule, the defensive matchups against a horrific Hawks team more than makes up for it.
Other DFS Forwards to Consider: DeMarre Carroll, John Collins, Kent Bazemore, Wayne Ellington (if Dion Waiters is out), Luke Babbitt
DFS Centers to Consider
Al Horford - C, @ ATL ($7,500 FD, $7,200 DK)
With limited options at the center position on Monday night, you are basically guaranteed points with Al Horford. With Atlanta being one of the crappiest teams in the league, Horford should put a hurting on them on Monday night. The guy has been efficient everywhere this season, especially since sliding back over to the four spot, which is his natural position. Plus, he is playing his former team which usually gives most players extra motivation to perform at a higher-level.
Other DFS Centers to Consider: Alex Len
