High Value PG
Spencer Dinwiddie, BKN vs TOR ($6,000): Dinwiddie’s salary has dipped below the average thanks two his inability to crack 30 fantasy points in four of his last five. He had 13.9 fantasy points against the Raptors on Dec. 15, which is a good sign for his value on Monday. However, I like him to hit 25 fantasy points in this one. He remains the top scoring options on the Nets and is a much better player at home. He averages 34 fantasy points in Brooklyn compared to 22.4 fantasy points on the road. ***
Delon Wright, TOR at BKN ($4,800): Wright has really stepped up his game in recent contests, hitting value in four straight contests. That includes a 61.1 fantasy point night against the Bulls last Wednesday. He’s earned extra playing time, and until he shows a downtrend, should be taken advantage of at his current price. This matchup certainly helps his value. ****
Tyus Jones, MIN vs CLE ($5,500): Jones has seen his production dip, missing value in five straight games. He’s never been a big scorer and typically relies on his defense to produce numbers, which hurts his fantasy value. He needs 23.6 fantasy points to hit value on Monday. I still like him just because he plays big minutes, giving him the opportunity to come up with those steals while chipping in offensively. The Cavaliers play sloppy basketball for long stretches and that will help Jones. ***
