Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Dejounte Murray FD - $8900 DK - $8900Opponent - UTAProj Pts FD - 46.93 DK - 49.78 Trae Young is going to miss some time here with the hand injury which means this team gets turned over almost completely to Dejounte Murray. He sees increases in basically every statistical category and is coming off 25 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds last game against the Magic. The price hasn’t moved enough to account for the new opportunity and we are still getting him too cheap on both sites. He gets a good matchup against the Jazz and will be chalk on this slate. Bogdan Bogdanovic FD - $6600 DK - $6300Opponent - UTAProj Pts FD - 35.87 DK - 38.14 In terms of playing time bumps, Bogdan Bogdanovic sees a somewhat considerable uptick moving into the Hawks's starting lineup to replace Trae Young. He’s kind of score or bust with his fantasy profile, coming off an 11-shot that saw him get to 17 points. Bog did add in five rebounds, and three assists, but he’ll need the usage to really hit any upside. That being said, with the minutes and the matchup, he’s still a play here with Trae Young on the shelf. Dennis Schröder FD - $5400 DK - $4800Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 29.39 DK - 32.17 Ben Simmons is going to sit the second half of the back-to-back and Cam Thomas is doubtful with a sprained ankle suffered at the end of the Grizzlies game. That means we should see a lot of Dennis Schroder here for the Nets on Tuesday against the Magic. He played 26 minutes in the start on Monday, scoring 18 points while adding five assists. The minutes will, almost for sure, increase in this game with Brooklyn down bad in the backcourt. Small Forward DeMar DeRozan FD - $7900 DK - $7600Opponent - DETProj Pts FD - 45.46 DK - 46.73 The Pistons are coming off a real tough loss on Monday and get to run it on a back-to-back here against the Bulls. Chicago has run tighter rotations, playing the starters tons of minutes when games stay close. DeMar...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Collin Sexton FD - $6700 DK - $6200Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 28.49 DK - 30.65 Keyonte George FD - $5800 DK - $4700Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 29.75 DK - 30.35 The Utah Jazz draw one of the best matchups on the slate and come in as -10 favorites against the Charlotte Hornets. The latter are the second-worst defensive efficiency team in the league this season, playing matador style almost all year long. Utah has an interesting guard rotation in that Collin Sexton and Keyonte George are starters, but Jordan Clarkson comes in and plays a lot of minutes off the bench as well. It does lead to some usage concerns, but in general, the minutes are more than there for these guys with the prices relatively in check. Before the All-Star Break, Keyonte George played a whopping 41 minutes against the Warriors, putting up 22 shots and finishing with 33 points. It was, for sure, a breakout performance. The DraftKings price is way too low for his new role. Meanwhile, Sexton took the third most shots on the team in that game, getting up 18 looks and finishing with 35 points and nine assists. The Jazz can support these guys as cash game plays at their current salaries for sure. Tre Mann FD - $6600 DK - $5500Opponent - UTAProj Pts FD - 27.64 DK - 28.69 Tre Mann has been one of the big winners of the trade deadline, coming over from the Thunder and joining the Hornets starting lineup almost immediately. Over his last three games, he’s averaged 14 points, eight assists, and seven rebounds while running more than 30 minutes per game. He’s just contributing across the board while Charlotte is still without LaMelo Ball in the lineup. Even with the prices climbing, he’s still a play on both sites, especially DraftKings. Small Forward Scottie Barnes FD - $9200 DK - $8800Opponent - BKNProj Pts FD - 37.42 DK - 39.27 Scottie Barnes isn’t the best dollar-for-dollar value play on this slate, but he does have a very high floor at his current salaries. The scoring has come and gone...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Devin Booker FD - $9800 DK - $9800Opponent - DETProj Pts FD - 51.06 DK - 54.26 Bradley Beal is going to sit this game out, and the Phoenix Suns get to play the Detroit Pistons. Do we really need a ton more explanation here? Devin Booker is in an elite spot to pile on fantasy points against one of the worst defenses in the league, playing point guard for this group. He’s consistently playing close to 40 minutes in close games, ripping off 30+ point performances in two of his last three. The usage and assists should tick up considerably here, and the matchup is a choice. James Harden FD - $8800 DK - $8800Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 46.55 DK - 50.37 Kawhi Leonard has already been ruled out of this game, meaning we are in a spot to stack James Harden and Paul George for cash games. With Kawhi off the court, Harden has the second-highest usage among the starters at 23.2%, up from 20% on the season. The assists tick up as well, as the ball is in his hands more. His price has fallen on both sites because the Clippers have been at full strength for so long. It’s time to take advantage of Kawhi missing this game. Cole Anthony FD - $5100 DK - $3700Opponent - NYProj Pts FD - 26.89 DK - 29.24 Markelle Fultz has been ruled out, and that should mean Cole Anthony spiking minutes or maybe even starting this game. Anthony’s minutes have been all over the place with the Magic getting healthier, plus there’s some risk that Anthony Black starts. But seeing as how this dude is coming at just $3700 on DraftKings, I don’t see how we don’t take a chance on him in cash games there. Tre Mann FD - $6000 DK - $5000Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 33.91 DK - 38.15 One of the biggest trade deadline performance upticks we’ve seen is Tre Mann who came over from OKC, and instantly jumped into the Hornets’ starting lineup. Over the last two games, he’s averaging 10 points, eight assists, and 6.5 rebounds...

Be sure to read our free NBA and NFL Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy, and more. We've got you completely covered. Point Guard/ Shooting Guard De'Aaron Fox FD - $8800 DK - $8000Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 45.95 DK - 48.59 De'Aaron Fox has seen a bit of a price drop thanks to some short-term fantasy scoring drop-off. He hasn’t cracked 20 points in four-straight games, with the assists not really coming around either outside of a 10-dime performance against the Nuggets. The lack of scoring has him under $9K on each site, but he is now facing a Suns team that doesn’t defend the point of attack all that well. I like him as a bargain play in this price tier with a good matchup for the Kings. Cade Cunningham FD - $8400 DK - $7800Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 41.5 DK - 45.33 The Pistons seem to be honing in on the exact rotation they want to play and have even been able to stick in some recent games. That’s meant more consistency from Cade Cunningham, who is averaging 20 points and eight assists over the last four. He’s still struggling to hit the three consistently, which is one reason the price has stayed in check. Even as double-digit underdogs against the Lakers, I like playing him on DraftKings, coming under $8K against a below-average defense. Anfernee Simons FD - $7900 DK - $8200Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 38.9 DK - 43.75 The Blazers draw a tough matchup here against the Timberwolves, but there could be a lot to like about Anfernee Simons. For starters, Malcolm Brogdon is out, which helps Simons with the usage. Plus, the Blazers could be without Scoot Henderson as well which would make them very, very thin in the backcourt. Simons is getting up about 20 shots per game over the last four, scoring 27 point per in that stretch. The FanDuel price is enticing though there are blowout concerns to worry about. Small Forward Tyler Herro FD - $7800 DK - $6900Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 37.3 DK - 41.56 Jaime Jaquez Jr. FD - $5900 DK - $4500Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 28.03 DK - 30.14 The Heat are down some key figures today with Jimmy Butler out...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Coby White FD - $7600 DK - $7500Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 40.9 DK - 45.15 Alex Caruso FD - $6200 DK - $5300Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 34.34 DK - 34.85 The Bulls are in a good spot on Monday, facing off against the Atlanta Hawks who come in with the second-worst defensive efficiency in the league. They stink, and we are often targeting opposing offenses against them, even on big slates. That works here, with Coby White and Alex Caruson ringing in as the cash game plays. White is a candidate to play close to 40 minutes in close games, and he’s averaging 23 points, 6.5 assists, and five rebounds over the last four. Meanwhile, the biggest encouraging sign for Alex Caruso is the minutes are more consistently hitting in the mid-30s, which is what he needs to make a safe play. The middle-tier pricing mostly works, but because the usage rate is so low, he needs to be out there enough to fill in the stats across the board. In a fast-paced, low-defense game, that should work out in his favor. Immanuel Quickley FD - $7000 DK - $6900Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 36.98 DK - 40.43 Immanuel Quickley spiked 38 minutes two games ago against the Houston Rockets, an encouraging sign if the Raptors are going to play in non-blowouts. He scored 25 points 9-19 shooting in that one. The usage can come and go in this new role, but on Monday, he’s gifted with playing the Spurs, who rank 25th on defense and run the fifth-fastest pace. That’s a nice meeting spot for him to get up a lot of shots. Tre Mann FD - $6000 DK - $4600Opponent - INDProj Pts FD - 30.95 DK - 34.78 Tre Mann got the start for the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday in his first game with the new team following the trade deadline. It worked out with Mann scoring nine points, tallying nine assists, and running 27 minutes when it was all said and done. I think this role is secure going forward as long as LaMelo Ball is out of...
