NBA DFS Helper: Donovan Mitchell highlights tiered DraftKings value plays for Monday

Week 7's NBA action will begin with a nine-game main slate on Monday. The Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers will get things started with a 7 p.m. ET tip-off, while the final matchup on tap between the New Orleans Pelicans and Los Angeles Clippers is set for 10:30 p.m. ET. We've divided five players who could get fantasy managers the most bang for their buck into tiers.

Ameer Tyree got his start in NBA DFS over four years ago. The former DraftKings Nation betting and fantasy writer spent over a year and a half breaking down basketball slates to build optimal lineups there. Now he's turned his attention to stud, mid-tier, and bargain plays in Monday's nine-game slate.

One team Ameer loves: Donovan Mitchell. "The Utah Jazz's top option got back on track with 27 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in 27 minutes his last time out and returned 5X value. Mitchell could return big-time value against a bottom-10 scoring defense he's dominated in recent years. He's averaged 27 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.9 assists against the Portland Trail Blazers over the past two seasons," Ameer says about the matchup.
