NL200 Can we value bet top two pair on this board? Deep

Blinds: $1.00/$2.00 (6 Players) BN: $202.00
SB: $1511.30
BB: $135.55
UTG: $485.35
MP: $160.43
CO: $615.06 (Hero)
Villain is a reg but I haven't played much with him.
Preflop ($3.00) Hero is CO with A K
UTG folds, MP calls $2.00, Hero raises to $9.00, BN folds, SB raises to $25.00, BB folds, MP folds, Hero calls $16.00
I guess I could have 4-bet here since SB's range is likely wider due to me iso-raising the fish.
Flop ($54.00) 9 8 J
SB checks, Hero bets $40.00, SB calls $40.00
I decided to bet big on this flop so that I had the option of applying pressure later in the hand. I think this board favours my range a lot.
Turn ($134.00) 9 8 J A
SB checks, Hero checks
Just pot controlling at this point since if I got CR'ed here I would probably puke.
River ($134.00) 9 8 J A K
SB checks, Hero checks
Backdoor diamonds probably don't make much sense and given the action I doubt he has a straight either. I think if villain has something like AQ, AJ, AT, or KQ, he might call a river bet if I size it properly. What do you guys think?
