Malik Monk, SG, Charlotte Hornets

FanDuel Price: $3,500
Projected FanDuel Points: 14.6
Projected FanDuel Value: 4.16

Malik Monk is coming off a 19-point performance which occurred mostly due to a lopsided loss versus the Los Angeles Lakers. When playing 20-plus minutes over 17 games this season, Monk is averaging 14 points, 2.2 assists, and 2.6 three-pointers made. The Charlotte Hornets are favored by 12.5 points tonight versus the Cleveland Cavaliers, so there is a chance Monk could see extended time on the court once again.

Based on our metrics, Monk -- along with teammate Jeremy Lamb -- shares the third-best defense-versus-position matchup among tonight's shooting guards. Priced at minimum-salary, he is worth considering as a flier.
