Vegas Notes

- The Lakers-Rockets game has the highest total on the board at 209.5, with the Rockets huge 11.5 home favorites. This game has blowout written all over it.

- The next highest point total is the Wizards-Mavericks with 208.0. This game is scheduled to be close with the Mavs as 6.5 home favorites but also keep in mind this is the Wizards 5th game in the past 7 days.

- Overall five of the eight games have point totals over 200. The Warriors-Bucks game point total has not be determined yet but should also have a point total of over 200.

- The Spurs at the Hawks has the lowest total of the night at 191.5, with the Spurs being small 3 point road favorites. On this slate this is a game that can easily be avoided.

GPP Picks

Salary: FD: $10,800 DK: $10,800

Harden has the highest ceiling off any player on tonight's slate facing the weak Lakers defense. The Lakers allow 106.4 points per game and allow the 3rd most fantasy points per game with 225.34. Harden is one of the truly elite scorers in the NBA and is coming off a huge 70.75 DraftKings point game which was his 3rd over 70 points night of the season. He owned the Lakers last season with 31 points, 6 assists, and 4.3 rebounds per game against them. Harden should dominate them once again tonight. The only real question mark is if Harden will see his full allotment of minutes in a game that the Rockets are huge 11.5 favorites.
