It's an Easter weekend jam-packed with sports so hopefully, everybody finds time to eat an egg and spend at least a minute or two with loved ones.

Speaking of Holiday, there's three of them in action tonight and Jrue looks like the 🔒of the slate. He's hit 48 and 57 fp the last two and now gets to go up against Portland's awful backcourt defense.

10 games on tap tonight, let's see what turns up.

Today's NBA Matchups

Warriors @ Raptors (-2.5), O/U 224.5, 7:00 PM ET

Golden State is on the quick turnaround following a 7-point loss to the Heat last night. Is the 0 days rest the sole reason Toronto (losers of 9 of 10) is favored or does this mean Steph Curry is sitting?

Rockets @ Celtics (-11.5), O/U 223, 7:30 PM ET

Houston has gotten back to their losing ways dropping two straight, and John Wall is a GTD in a possible 🕯️Blowout Game🕯️as nearly a dozen point favorites.

Mavericks (-6) @ Knicks, O/U 212.5, 7:30 PM ET

Can New York's Thibodeau-led defense have better success against Luka Doncic, who had 73 and 75fp in two meetings last season?

Hornets @ Pacers (-4), O/U 219, 8:00 PM ET

The Pacers have held two of the last three opponents to under 100 points, although Charlotte may not have been a huge target here anyways. Domantas Sabonis (quad) is on the injury report but is probable.

Timberwolves @ Grizzlies (-6.5), O/U 230.5, 8:00 PM ET

The Grizzlies have three losses in the last four games, but cut them a little slack because each one came against the NBA leading Jazz. Going from playing the Utah defense to Minnesota's should make for a good night.

Hawks @ Pelicans (-1.5), O/U 223, 9:00 PM ET

Hark! Who goes here? Both teams are on the back to back and Atlanta logged some serious minutes in a double OT win over the Spurs last night. New Orleans was without Zion Williamson (thumb), and Brandon Ingram (toe) in their loss to Orlando.

Bulls @ Jazz (-12), O/U 225, 9:00 PM ET

Chicago gave up a 59fp night to Devin Booker on Wednesday, failing to figure out a way to defend the ball screen. Great spot for Donovan Mitchell if he returns from personal matters here. Zach LaVine (ankle) is also questionable.

Thunder @ Suns (-13), O/U 220.5, 10:00 PM ET

🕯️Blowout Game🕯️spot for the Suns as the biggest favorites of the night. OKC did beat Toronto on Wednesday, but that just goes to show how bad the Raptors are right now.

Bucks (-3) @ Trail Blazers, O/U 238.5, 10:00 PM ET

Great game to target not just because it should be a close one, but due to a total approaching the 240s. Milwaukee has lost three of four while Portland has won four straight which were all road games.

Lakers @ Kings (-4.5), O/U 221.5, 10:00 PM ET

The Kings had a five game win streak snapped in a loss to the Spurs on Wednesday, but have a great chance to start a new one Friday. This Lakers offense has been anemic with 101 points or less in 6 of 7 since James' injury.

Tonight's Point Guard / Shooting Guard Notables

Donovan Mitchell DK $8.8k | FD $8.8k

vs. Chicago

Donovan Mitchell took a personal day Wednesday after the anxiety riddled plan ride to Memphis. He is by all accounts back tonight, in a great spot vs. a Bulls team that is getting torched by SGs lately. That includes Mitchell, who had 30/6/6 vs. the Bulls on March 22nd even in a 25-point Jazz win.

Fred VanVleet DK $8.2k | FD $7.4k

vs. Golden State

FVV needs to step up as the Raptors have a rare shot at a win here against a Golden State team on the back to back and playing without Curry. There's no Kyle Lowry for Toronto, and Fred VanVleet was able to break 50fp on Wednesday despite scoring just 18 real points.

Jrue Holiday DK $7.5k | FD $7.5k

@ Portland

Play him until you don't, especially against this Portland defense. Still a decent price despite four perfect lineups in his last six games.

Theo Maledon DK $5.8k | FD $5.8k

@Phoenix

There are worse options out there for the price than Theo Maledon, a starting PG averaging over 32 min/game the last three while taking 16, 13, and 16 shots the last three. Sure Phoenix is #1 vs. the PG, but they've also allowed 37+ to Devonte Graham and Trae Young this week. Plus, that's why ownership is like 3%.

Lou Williams DK $4.4k | FD $4.8k

@New Orleans

One of the fresher Hawks players (22 mins last night) playing a Pelicans team that is also on the back to back. With no Trae Young (and 5 other players) Williams should get as many minutes as he wants in an 8-man rotation.

Tonight's SF / PF Notables

Kyle Kuzma DK $7.2k | FD $7.2

@Sacramento

There's not a whole lot of other players to take shots for the Lakers right now, and Kyle Kuzma has put up 17+ in three straight. We need Sacramento to pick up the pace a bit tonight, and they do have a couple of 130+ points scored games over the last four while allowing at least 115+ in three of those games. When's the last time Buddy Hield's defense scared you away from a play?

Norman Powell DK $6.4k | FD $6.8k

vs. Milwaukee

We're still waiting for the Normal Powell breakout game as a member of the Trail Blazers, but that could come tonight in an up pace game with the Bucks. The betting total is pushing 240 in this one, and Powell has hit 40+ twice this year vs. Milwaukee while with the Raptors.

Justin Holiday DK $4.1k | FD $3.8k

vs. Charlotte

Holiday stack on the holiday weekend. Justin is getting a decent amount of shots in the last two with 11 in both games, it's just that he hasn't made them with 3 and 2 make. That could change against a Charlotte team on the back to back, and especially if Sabonis' tricky quad starts to act up

Tonight's Center Position Notables

Jonas Valanciunas DK $7.7k | FD $7.6k

vs. Minnesota

Weird C slate tonight with Clint Capela playing 45 minutes last night, and Nikola Vucevic's price not yet down to where it should be with the Bulls (and playing Gobert). That leaves Karl-Anthony Towns or the guy who he's matched up against. The T'Wolves have been playing better vs. the C, but Jonas Valanciunas has been a machine with 14+ rebounds in 7 of the last 8. Minnesota is the 4th worst rebounding team in the league.
