3 overreactions as Mavericks dominate Knicks in Madison Square Garden Arguably the most surprising result of the season thus far for the Dallas Mavericks.

Miles Kelly - Goes scoreless in win Kelly provided one rebound and one assist in two minutes during Monday's 114-97 win over the Knicks.

Impact Kelly remained in the rotation, playing for the sixth straight game, after seeing the court just twice through the first six weeks of the season. It's always good to see young players trying to make a name for themselves, although at this point, there is no reason to consider him a viable fantasy asset.

Moussa Cisse - Flirts with double-double Cisse had 15 points (5-6 FG, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, four blocks and one steal in 20 minutes during Monday's 114-97 victory over New York.

Impact Cisse turned in the best performance of his young career, falling one rebound short of his first double-double, while also matching his career-high with four blocks. With Daniel Gafford continuing to deal with ankle issues, Cisse has made the most of his limited opportunities over the past two weeks. In five games during that span, he has put up top 90 value in standard leagues, averaging 8.2 points on 76.2 percent shooting from the field, adding 9.6 blocks and 2.0 blocks in just 19.2 minutes per contest. It's tough to label him a must-roster player, but managers will want to keep a close eye on him as we approach the silly season.

Max Christie - Career-high eight triples Christie logged 26 points (9-13 FG, 8-10 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists across 35 minutes during Monday's 114-97 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Christie drained a career-high eight three-pointers, scoring at least 22 points for the second straight game. Despite a somewhat empty fantasy game, Christie has been able to flirt with standard league value over the past month. In 12 appearances during that time, he has averaged 15.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.5 three-pointers, leaving him just outside the top 100.
