It's Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the NBA has their usual full docket of hoops beginning with a 12:30 PM ET tip-off between the Pelicans and Celtics.

There are 12 games in total today, but we'll focus on tonight's 5-game main slate that looks like it could be on the lower scoring side. On to it!

Tonight's Key NBA Matchups

Trail Blazers (-2) @ Magic , O/U 224.5 7:00 ET

Portland looks like they're getting CJ McCollum back from a lung injury that has kept him out since December 4th and tonight is also a homecoming game 🏠 for Anfernee Simons who grew up about 20 minutes North of Orlando.

Raptors @ Heat (-3), O/U 208.5 7:30 ET

Bam Adebayo (thumb) is likely to make his return which does kind of kill some of the Omer Yurtseven hype (14 straight double-digit rebounds). This game would've marked Kyle Lowry's first game against his old team Toronto but he's out for personal reasons.

Thunder @ Mavs (-11.5), O/U 209 8:30 ET

Blowout game potential with Dallas having held 8 of their last 10 opponents under 100 points. OKC meanwhile has lost 8 of 10.

Suns (-5) @ , O/U 226.5 8:30 ET

Phoenix is playing on a road back to back but yesterday afternoon's 135-108 win in Detroit was pretty relaxing. Devin Booker and Chris Paul both played under 30 minutes, but Deandre Ayton suffered a right ankle sprain and missed the 2nd half vs. the Pistons.

Jazz (-4.5) @ Lakers, O/U 232.5 10:30 ET

Utah is on a back to back after a win in Denver last night, but could still be a target against a Lakers team that has lost three straight while allowing 125+ points in each defeat.

Tonight's Point Guard / Shooting Guard Notables

CJ McCollum DK $8.5k FD $8.1k @Orlando

• Low ownership playing for first time since December 4th

• +2.42% usage bump with Damian Lillard out, Norman Powell (illness) also questionable

• May not need a ton of minutes as Orlando has allowed 35+ fp to three of last four SGs

Anfernee Simons DK $8k | FD $7.6k @Orlando

• Pay to see if the production keeps up in the McCollum return

• 6X and perfect lineup in five of the last six

• From 20 minutes away in Altamonte Springs, Florida

Josh Giddey DK $7.1k | FD $6.5k @Dallas

• Ownership should be lower after only hitting 6X on DK once in the last five games and the Mavs having the best defense in the NBA since January 1st

• Did have a triple-double vs. Dallas on January 2nd (17/13/14) even when OKC had just 86 points

Tonight's SF / PF Notables

Malik Monk DK $5.9k | FD $5.6k @ Lakers

• Roller coaster trend is due for an 'up' night

• Utah has allowed 35+ fp to four of past five PFs

• Jazz playing on back to back

Jae Crowder DK $4.8k | FD $5.1k @San Antonio

• 30+ fp two of the last three, 11+ rebounds two of the last three and San Antonio 23rd in opponent rebounds

• Had 19 points/6 rebounds vs. Spurs December 6th (32fp)

• Played just 23 minutes yesterday

Royce O'Neale DK $4.6k | FD $5.5k @Lakers

• Has scored 30+ fp in three of last four vs. Lakers

• L.A. very thin in the frontcourt, have allowed 125+ points in three straight

• Four straight PFs have hit 31+ fp vs. Lakers

Tonight's Center Position Notables

Pascal Siakam DK $9.4k | FD $9.9k @ Miami

• Matches up with Bam Adebayo who hasn't played in over a month

• 39+ minutes in six straight games, 16 field goal floor over that span

• Had a triple-double on Saturday in Milwaukee even on a back to back

Omer Yurtseven DK $6.8k | FD $7k vs. Toronto

• A lot of people jumping off with Bam Adebayo returning, but his minutes could be limited the first 2-3 games

• Yurtseven has a 37fp floor in 9 of his last 10
