Vegas Notes
- We are back to a normal slate after last night's chalky night, with 8 games on tap for tonight. Thunder-Timberwolves (210, +11) owns the highest total on the slate.
- The lowest total belongs to Spurs-Pistons (194.5, +7).
- Blowout concerns are few and far between tonight. The only other fairly large spread aside from the Thunder game is Suns-Pacers (205, -9.5).

On this 8-game slate, there are plenty of contrarian options. With LeBron, Durant, Leonard, and George all playing tonight, Melo may be the forgotten man at the SF position. He played very well against the Celtics in their first meeting, posting a 29/10 double-double in 35 minutes, totaling 46 DK points. Boston is allowing the 8th-most fantasy points to the position, and Melo has been in great form, averaging 48 DK points per game over his last 4 contests.
