DFS Main Slate Rundown 📰

After every NBA had the night off on Monday, it’s full steam ahead on Tuesday. Depending on your DFS site of choice, you’ll either be looking at an 11-game main slate (DK) or a 10-game main slate (FD) -- the only difference being FanDuel excluding the DEN/UTA match-up. The NBA regular season is really getting down to the end of the line here with every team having either three or four games remaining. As you’d expect, the injury report is as hectic as ever. In typical late-season fashion, there are several double-digit spreads on this slate -- five in total, if we’re including the DEN/UTA game. However, the remaining six games all have a spread under six points, so we may see quite a few competitive match-ups this evening. Let’s see what we can cook up today! Best of luck!

As a general rule of thumb at this late stage of the season, it really helps to focus on games and scenarios that have playoff implications. You can find the most up-to-date standings by following this link: NBA Standings
