It’s friday and we’ve got great basketball ahead of us! Let’s briefly introduce the most intriguing games in today’s nine game slate! The Boston Celtics are playing their former coach Ime Udoka and the surprising Rockets team, with the O/U standing at 221. The Wizards and the Pelicans are facing off in one of many future Cooper Flagg showdowns, and the O/U stands at 233. Then, we have two West vs. East matchups, where OKC faces the Knicks and the Cavs face the Mavs! The chances of these games representing the future finals matchup are slim, but it’s possible! And the fun isn’t over yet, as we’re getting a Victor Wembanyama vs. Nikola Jokic matchup (and a vintage Russell Westbrook vs. Chris Paul!) that boasts an O/U of 237.5! Lastly, the fast-paced Grizzlies are playing the Doug Christie coached Kings in what figures to be a high-scoring matchup, with an O/U set at 240! Let’s get right into it!

DFS Pillar Plays
Anthony Davis
Salary: $10,500
Position: C
The Lakers will get a lot of love today, as they’re facing the Hawks, who rank 2nd in pace, allow the 6th most fgm to go along the 9th best fg%, while also being top five in steals allowed and top-10 in blocks allowed. And to opposing Cs? The Hawks give up the 5th most points and a top-10 fg%! In his past game against the Hawks, the only one this season, Anthony Davis posted 38 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists, in a game that ended in a 132-134 Lakers loss and would have smashed today’s 231.5 O/U. There’s a cloud hovering around AD’s status for today, as he missed yesterday’s eight point win vs. the Blazers. But if AD is in, he should be healthy, well-rested and with a great matchup!
