Happy Monday! We have the makings of a potentially chaotic NBA slate to open the week. The list of players carrying questionable tags into the day features some of the biggest names in the sport, including Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic, Anthony Davis, and, of course, Jock Landale.
The Denver situation is particularly precarious. They’re returning to the States after beating the Pacers in Mexico City over the weekend. I’m not sure what happened to them on their flight back, but along with Jokic, they’ve listed Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Cameron Johnson, Christian Braun, and DeMar DeRozan as questionable for tonight’s game in Houston. Could be a mass rest situation here, folks.
Slate Overview
In addition to all of the injury uncertainty, we’ve also got different slates on DraftKings and FanDuel, as usual. FD decided to leave the late-night NO/GS game on their board, making it an 8-game main slate. DK excluded that one, so just 7 games over there.
As always, I’ll be here throughout the day updating the tables as news breaks. Based on the injury report, there will be plenty of breaking. I’ll also be on Grinders Live to discuss the mayhem with Dean and Chop at 5:40 PM ET, so check that out.
