I'll highlight my top plays for GPP action to help you find those high floor players. Be sure to check out our minutes tool, and Colossus lineup optimizer.

Vegas Notes

- Lots of high scoring projected games tonight, with the Kings, Warriors, Thunder, and Wizards being the highest.

- If the Mavs rest their players, expect that -10 spread to shoot up, putting that one into a blowout territory.

- Knicks-Nets has an unattractive low 191 total, but if Melo sits, there is a lot of value there. Arron Afflalo, Kristaps Porzingis, and Derrick Williams get a bump.

Boston is a good back-court defense, but have struggled against the forward and center positions. They have allowed the 8th most fantasy points per game to opposing small forwards, 22nd in rebound differential, as they are consistently dropping lower and lower in that department. George has been frustrating of late mixing in 45+ fantasy point games with a lot of fantasy point games in the 30's. With Durant, Gallinari, and Batum on the slate, George is by far the less steady option. He has averaged 26-3-10 in two games against Boston this season, and is still averaging 23-3-8, with almost three steals per game in the last six games. He is a high volume shooter regardless of if his shot is dropping, and here is to hoping it is tonight.

I love the Wade call out but I don't see myself pivoting off of Thompson in the same price range.
Nice write up. Love the wade pick more now with Goran out. Flash should have the ball in his hands even more now.
