Vegas Notes
- The Clippers-Rockets game has the highest total on the board at 212.5, with the Rockets slight 1 point home favorites. This is the game you want to target the most.
- Two out of the four games have projected point totals under 200 with the Hornets-Wizards point total yet to be determined.
- The Bulls are coming off a quadruple overtime game last night and did not get to their hotel until early this morning. All Bulls players are likely to have limited minutes in this situation.
- There are several key injuries to keep an eye on including Nicolas Batum and Otto Porter.

The Clippers-Rockets game has the highest projected point total of the night and is one I want maximum exposure to and Harden is a top option on any slate. Harden has only gone below 40 DraftKings points four times this season and has gone above 60 DK points five times. The problem with Harden tonight is the match-up against the Clippers who are a team Harden traditionally struggles against. In the prior two season against the Clippers Harden is averaging less than 20 points a game which is nearly 7 points lower than his season average. Harden did however go for 46 points against them in their only meeting this season and scored 55 DK points which is by far his best game against the Clippers. It is hard to know if that Harden is going to be the one to show up or the Harden that struggles against the Clips tonight.
