NBA DFS Helper: Jayson Tatum headlines Monday's list of top DraftKings plays

Week 23 is underway and Monday's NBA slate will include nine games. Several of the weekend's top performers have a shot to get off to a strong start on Monday. We've identified three of the most desirable targets and divided them into to tiers. If you're a fantasy manager trying to find value at varying price points, you've come to the right place.

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. His two top plays from last week were James Harden and Fred VanVleet. Both players returned over 5X value and eclipsed 40 DraftKings points. Now he's turned his attention to Monday's nine-game slate.

One play Ameer loves: Jayson Tatum. "Tatum's gearing up for his second matchup against OKC this year and has a great chance to put on another strong performance following his 30-point outing from Sunday. The Celtics wing tallied 33 points, eight rebounds, and five assists the last time he faced the Thunder. He's also averaged 29.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game on 59.2 percent shooting last week." Ameer says about the matchup.
