Hello Grinders. I am covering for Justin today on this solid 7-game main slate. From a macro view, we have a few teams playing the back end of a back-to-back (IND, OKC, UTA) and several injuries to monitor. The biggest ones are on San Antonio with Keldon Johnson, Derrick White, Rudy Gay and Devin Vassell all out and DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge both questionable. Tobias Harris has been ruled out. We also have Elfrid Payton doubtful, meaning the guard situation in New York is something to monitor. Kristaps Porzingis is questionable in Dallas. We continue to have JaMychal Green, Gary Harris and Paul Millsap out. Lastly, Hamidou Diallo is out. This is by no means a comprehensive list and I’m sure by the time lock rolls around, we’ll have several more pieces of news to account for. I’ll do my best to update this article at the top as news drop but here are my core plays at the start of the day:
