This week's list is comprised of three players that have been in this space before; all are young players with established roles and some upside in their current situations.
Two other players have been elevated due to injuries to teammates, but are also young enough to play themselves into continuing roles as we move into the later parts of the season.
Malik Monk, Los Angeles Lakers (16.9% rostered in ESPN leagues): Monk has been in this space before this season, and his hot play of late earned him a return. Over his last three games, he has averaged 22.0 PPG (48.9 FG%, 87.5 FT%, 46.9 3P%), 6.3 RPG, 5.0 3PG, 4.0 APG and 1.0 SPG. Monk is a streaky shooter in a hot streak, and he's also getting more opportunity with LeBron James (knee) sidelined. James continues to battle a swollen knee, but isn't expected to miss major time. Either way, Monk retains value as the youthful energy, 3-point shooting and instant offense roles and that value just increases in times like these where the team relies on him to help carry the offense.
