If you're winding down your NFL DFS slate today, we have a nice five-game NBA slate to fill your evening with plenty of high-total games, high-producing players and high-intrigue matchups.
NOTE: If you're playing on FanDuel, they include the 6:00 PM ET Bucks-Hawks game on their main slate. Those players aren't reflected in the Playbook or Core Plays, but here are some interesting players in that game:
Giannis Antetokuonmpo - shocker, I know
Trae Young - Milwaukee bottom-10 against points guards
John Collins - boom or bust this year, but playing big minutes
Pat Connaughton - On fire the last two games and salary doesn't reflect it
Bogdan Bogdanovic - If he plays, he is a guaranteed 30 minutes and 20+ fantasy points
The main injury on the main slate is to Damian Lillard, which opens up Anfernee Simons as the chalk value play and vaults CJ McCollum to a top raw play on the slate with a salary that's in the mid-range on all sites.
The best game to stack (by far) is GSW-CHA, with a 225.5 implied total and several players whose salaries are too low for the game environment. I love individual players in the BKN-OKC contest, but be mindful of the blowout risk here (BKN -9.5).
