Sacramento Kings DFS Spin
Malik Monk provided a boost off the bench on Monday with 21 points (8-of-13 FGs), two rebounds, nine assists, one steal and four 3-pointers against the Nets.
While Monk was an elite sixth man for Sacramento last year, he has been even better this season, which has resulted in him sitting just outside the top-100 in 9-cat scoring. He has been even better as of late, providing top-40 value over the past two weeks. He is averaging career-highs in points, assists and 3-pointers, and he has shot 54.1% from the floor over the past two weeks, which explains his top-40 production. His improved playmaking has been huge for the Kings, as we saw in this game.
Los Angeles Clippers DFS Spin
Kawhi Leonard played 38 minutes in Monday’s 132-127 win over Portland, scoring 34 points (11-of-19 FGs, 9-of-9 FTs) with six rebounds, five assists, three steals, and three 3-pointers.
Three nights removed from dropping 41 points on the Jazz, Leonard put up another 34 on Monday. Providing top-15 per-game value in 9-cat formats for the season, he’s been a top-5 player over the last two weeks. However, things don’t get any easier as the Clippers host Sacramento on Tuesday. Also providing 2nd-round value in 9-cat formats is Paul George, who finished Monday’s win with 20 points, eight rebounds, eight assists, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers in 41 minutes.
