Sunday features the Instacart 500 presented by Instacart from Phoenix. Brad Keselowski, Kyle Larson, Denny Hamlin, Christopher Bell, and Martin Truex Jr. will make up the top five to start the race. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for their position (20 for 1st place, 19 for 2nd place, 18 for 3rd, and so on).

Pick 1: More or Less Fantasy Points (2/2)
Recommended Prop Pick: Kevin Harvick LESS 18.5 Fantasy Points and Kyle Busch. MORE 17.5 Fantasy Points
Busch and Harvick are projected to be two of the higher fantasy point producers on Sunday and lucky for us, we can bet on both of them but...
How much of what happened to Harvick last week in Vegas hurt his psyche this week at Phoenix? One has to wonder. Also, his starting position of 18th likely keeps him from leading any laps.
Harvick is also set at a high point total of 18.5. He attained this high of a point total probably because of his career results and abundance of top-five finishes. Does Harvick even have the car to get into the top-10? That is a huge question mark right now. His pit crew has become a bit of liability the past few races.
If he does not get into the top-five, the LESS hits with ease. Kyle Busch is the more likely to hit the over as he is further up the board and has a similar pedigree of results over his past seven or eight races at Phoenix aside from a couple of small hiccups.

Pick 2: More or Less Fantasy Points (2/2)
Recommended Prop Pick: Brad Keselowski OVER 15.5 Fantasy Points, Kyle Larson OVER 15.5 Fantasy Points
This prop gives us an excellent chance to be a bit more aggressive. With the drivers that MNF offers and no qualifying, finding a few individual props that you are confident about and using them in multiple contests seems to be the way to attack a race.
The idea here is to hope that either Keselowski or Larson can lead enough laps and then hold on for a top-ten finish. That is the plan. Basically, two top-five finishes would be ideal here. Keselowski led 98 laps in the two races last year and Larson just won in Vegas last week. Larson's car pulled away in the final laps and wound up winning by over three seconds.
As for the points, these are low totals for a guy starting on the pole and one starting right next to him. It looks like a trap and anything has risk, but these are drivers who have had success at Phoenix. Barring multiple wrecks early, this may be one of the best props of the weekend on Monkey Knife Fight.
