This is a massive 11-game FanDuel main slate tonight. There are four games that have projections of at least 220 points. The Washington-Philadelphia game has the highest o/u at 235. The New Orleans-Miami game has the second highest total at 229.5. Both the Memphis-Brooklyn and the Cleveland-Boston games have 209 projected totals but each has some plays that I like tonight. The Thunder have the highest bump in points based on implied total. They are projected to score 9 more points than normal. Even in this pace up spot with a 227 o/u, you need to be cautious because it could be a blowout as the Thunder are favored by 13 points.

There are 14 players that are priced at $9,000 or higher with Anthony Davis being the top-priced player by a clear margin at $12,300. James Harden and Russell Westbrook are the next highest at $11,700 and $11,400, respectively. Joel Embiid and Lebron James round out the $11K range as they are both $11,000.

There are a lot of ways to construct lineups. Targeting the highest scoring game of the night (Washington-Philadelphia) wouldn’t be a bad decision. John Wall, Bradley Beal, Ben Simmons, Jimmy Butler, and Embiid could all go off and the role players could also have big games. The example lineup that I give you today targets some of my favorite individual plays from the night. You’ll notice that I take more of a balanced approach, rather than a stars-and-scrubs approach. I do not have any of the top-priced plays, though if I did, my two favorite plays from an equity standpoint are James Harden and Joel Embiid.
