New York Knicks DFS Spin
Jalen Brunson played 35 minutes in Monday's 124-106 win over the Nets, accounting for 40 points (15-of-21 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), two rebounds, five assists, one block, and six 3-pointers. On the way to his third game this season with at least 40 points, Brunson matched his career-high with six 3-pointers. He was one of two Knicks starters to score in double figures, with Julius Randle adding 18 points along with 10 rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer. With RJ Barrett (four points and one rebound in 24 minutes) offering little offensively and returning to the locker room briefly with an unspecified injury, the Knicks' two Villanova alums (Brunson and Josh Hart) combined to score 67 points. Brunson missed out on a trip to the All-Star Game, but there's no denying the impact he's had on the Knicks and fantasy basketball rosters.
Atlanta Hawks DFS Spin
Trae Young facilitated well on Monday and contributed 25 points (7-for-18 FGs), two rebounds, 14 assists, two steals and two 3-pointers in a 144-138 loss to the Hornets. Ice Trae didn't have his most efficient night as he shots 7-for-18 from the floor and turned it over five times, though he did continue to dominant with his passing. He has recorded double-figure assist numbers in nine of his last ten games, including 59 over his last four games. After a slow start to the season, he has provided top-20 numbers in 9-cat leagues over the past two weeks. The turnovers aren't going anywhere, but if he's hitting shots at a percentage closer to 45 than 40, he'll continue to provide top tier value for the rest of the year.
