Vegas Notes
- There are some blowout concerns tonight, Spurs -12.5, Warriors -12.5, Hawks -13.5, Clippers -11. Only team I am staying away from is the Hawks. Team is very balanced, and if a blowout occurs, the upside will be hindered.
- Highest projected scores tonight, Warriors (115), Thunder (109), Hawks (106)
- 76ers, Wizards, and Nets are teams I am staying away from tonight, with totals under 94. On a huge slate, there are plenty of other teams to target.
- Sneaky high scoring game of the night? Jazz-Pelicans, 202 total.

If people are paying up for a point guard tonight, it will likely be Stephen Curry. He dropped over 60 fantasy points against the Suns last game, and well people will see that, and instantly flock. Russell Westbrook is one of my favorite plays tonight, and I believe pairing him and Durant in a lineup could be a great GPP move. Thunder have a 109 team total, and honestly, who else scores outside of these two? Westbrook has the highest usage rate in the NBA, and is averaging 20-9-8 in the last five games. Westy has an equal floor/ceiling to Curry, but is the contrarian move tonight.
