Vegas Notes

- This is a huge 11 game slate with four games projected over 200 points and four games with their totals yet to be determined.

- The Rockets-Pelicans game has the highest projected total of the night at 211.5 with the Pelicans slight 1.5 home favorites. This is a game to target heavily.

- The next highest totals are the Celtics-Pistons (204.5), Pacers-Timberwolves (206.5) and 76ers-Suns (204.0). Out of those three games the 76ers-Suns is the only game with a spread over 4.5 points as the Suns are the heaviest favorites on the board as 12 point home favorites.

- The lowest projected total of the night belongs to the Heat-Magic at 190.5. Overall there are three games with projected totals under 200.

GPP Picks

Salary: FD: $10,600 DK: $10,400

I already talked about in our Vegas notes how this game has the highest projected point total of the night and is one I want maximum exposure to and Harden is a great place to get that exposure. Harden has more upside than anyone on the slate and has gone over 60 DK points five times this season and over 50 DK points an additional 11 times. One of those 50 DK point games was against the Pelicans in which Harden put up 24/10/6. He should see similar numbers tonight as those are right in line with his 28.5/6/6.9 season averages and the Pelicans allow 42.15 DK points to shooting guards which is 5th most in the NBA. With Eric Bledsoe playing the 76ers and Harden coming off a game where he scored below 40 DK points he is likely to go under owned tonight, which makes me love Harden even more in this match-up.
