High Value PG

Malik Monk, CHA vs IND ($5,200): Monk is making a big impression late in the season. He had 42.75 fantasy points against the Magic on Friday. He’s getting minutes to showcase himself right now and is taking advantage of that. On paper, the Pacers are a tough matchup, but the Pacers might not give full effort with little to play for. ***

Tyler Dorsey, ATL at BOS ($4,300): Dorsey has been getting strong minutes off the bench for the Hawks and he’s delivering. He played 32 minutes against the Wizards, finishing with 31.25 fantasy points. He looks to be a better option than Isaiah Taylor right now, although you may trust the starter more. But Dorsey has posted a higher usage rate in Atlanta’s last five games. ***

Quinn Cook, GS at PHO ($6,200): Cook had 36.75 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Saturday. The Warriors will continue to integrate him into the offense as Steph Curry’s replacement for at least a round in the playoffs. And against the Suns, he should have no problem going over 30 fantasy points. ****

Shelvin Mack, ORL at TOR ($5,000): Mack is coming off the bench in Orlando, but he’s getting the majority of the playing time right now. He’s been over value in three straight. The Raptors are a tough matchup on paper, but they’ll be cautious with guys already having the top seed locked up. He’ll get you the 23 fantasy points he needs to reach value on Sunday. ***
