Memphis Grizzlies DFS Spin
Dillon Brooks shot 7-of-19 from the field and 1-of-1 from the foul line in Monday's 104-88 win over Dallas, scoring 19 points with three rebounds, five assists, two steals, and four 3-pointers in 33 minutes. Brooks spent much of his time outside the 3-point line on Monday, shooting 4-of-11 from deep. While the overall field-goal percentage wasn't great, it should be noted that Brooks racked up five assists and didn't commit a turnover. While he remains ranked well outside the top 200 in season-long value, Brooks has been a 12th-round player over the last week. That's nothing to write home about, but give the man credit for not being the fantasy liability that he's been for most of the season.
Miami Heat DFS Spin
Jimmy Butler finished Monday's 119-115 win over the Jazz with 24 points (5-of-14 FGs, 13-of-15 FTs), eight rebounds, four assists, four steals, two blocks, and one 3-pointer in 30 minutes. Butler didn't have his best night shooting the ball, but he took full advantage of the foul line as the Heat edged out the Jazz. But a subpar shooting night is acceptable when you're shooting 60% from the field over the last two weeks, as Butler was entering Monday's game. He's been a top-10 player in 9-cat formats during this stretch, recently cracking the 1st-round in season-long value. Miami's fighting to get out of the play-in tournament spots in the East, so every win will be of even greater importance. Butler will look to keep things rolling on Wednesday when the Heat host the Grizzlies.
