Hello, and happy Saturday. Yesterday was a weird one, huh? For a while, it felt like the airport ground stop was going to wreak havoc on sports schedules this weekend, which is definitely the most important thing to think about during a national emergency. But in the end, they were able to get all of that sorted out, and from what it sounds like, most games will go on as planned today.
I haven’t yet heard of any issues with tonight’s NBA schedule, but I will update things if we get news of any sort of postponement. Tonight’s slate is a pretty light one, so it should be fine… unless it isn’t. Anyway, I’ll be on Grinders Live with TJ and Will in the ~90 minutes leading up to the 7 PM ET lock time, so be sure to tune in.
Slate Overview
We’ve got just 5 games on the main slate tonight. In shocking news, the slates are identical on DraftKings and FanDuel. Two of the games feature point spreads of at least 12 points, so there’s at least a little bit of blowout risk. The Pelicans, Heat, Cavs, Grizzlies, and Bulls are all playing the 2nd half of a back-to-back, while the Mavs are on the 1st half of a back-to-back. None of these teams are playing for the 3rd time in the last 4 nights, however.
