It's a short stack 4-gamer on tonight's NBA DFS card and the big news is Golden State taking it easy on the back to back with Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Juan Toscano-Anderson among those not suiting up for various reasons tonight.

Boston is also on 0 days rest in their trip to Madison Square Garden and the Memphis (Detroit) and Phoenix (Clippers) games could turn into blowouts.

Let's wade through it:

Tonight's Key NBA Matchups

Celtics (-1.5) @ Knicks , O/U 207.5 7:30 ET

While the Celtics like what they have in the combo of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, New York may have the better dynamic duo in this matchup with RJ Barrett and Julius Randle combining for 62 points and 24 rebounds in Tuesday's win over Indiana.

Pistons @ Grizzlies (-12.5), O/U 218 8:00 ET

Detroit is on the back to back and allowed 140 points in last night's loss to Charlotte. That's why Memphis is favored by so many even with 8 guys listed as a game-time decision.

Warriors (-2.5) @ Pelicans, O/U 212 8:00 ET

Steph Curry ($11k) is the highest-priced player on the slate but he's avoidable not just being on the back to back, but because he's been held to 34fp or lower in three of the last four (and OUT with a quad injury). Andrew Wiggins ($6.8k) has picked up some of the slack and New Orleans has allowed 115+ in three straight.

Clippers @ Suns (-10.5), O/U 220.5 10:00 ET

Phoenix is a double-digit favorite here so does this one turn into a blowout game? The Clippers lost by 18 at home to the Timberwolves on Monday.
