Riding the Moose

It may not be a popular move, but with Alex Len nursing (another) ankle injury in Phoenix, Greg Monroe makes for a nice target at a low salary given his increase in minutes.

I’m guilty of having fallen for Monroe in the past, so there could be some bias here. But if you take a look at games in which he's seen at least 25 minutes this season, he’s averaging nearly 36 FanDuel points for just $4,670 in salary.

Monroe’s worst fantasy output in a game where he logged at least 25 minutes was 8 points, 12 boards, and 7 assists for 30 FanDuel points, which led to a measly five-times value.

He may not be a perfect player, but Monroe has the ability to stuff a box score as a double-double guy. And with a current opening for playing time in Phoenix (albeit for what could be just a couple of games), now is a great opportunity to ride the wave.
