The Thursday Night slate of NBA games is one of the best of the week, check out our NBA Daily Fantasy Tips for Thursday November 17th below!
GPP Of The Day
It’s hard to go past the $20,000 Moneyball Monster!
Bargain Basement Play
SF – Matt Barnes – $3,700 – Sacramento Kings
A low ownership play that we really like tonight. Barnes although coming off the bench is getting 25+ minutes on a regular basis. His length and experience will be called upon tonight against the San Antonio Spurs. He delivered a poor score last game on the second night of a back-to-back and given four days rest we expect him to get a good run tonight and exceed his season average.
**We also like Ersan Ilyasova ($3,800) tonight who will benefit from the fact Joel Embiid is sitting out for the 76ers
Mid-Range Play
SF – Danilo Gallinari $6,200 – Denver Nuggets
Gallo faces off against a Phoenix Suns who leaked points on the wings against an average team (Brooklyn) at home on Sunday. The Nuggets are tonight without Gary Harris and Will Barton which should bring forward more opportunities for Gallinari.
**We also like Steven Adams ($5,200) back at home against Rockets big man Clint Capela.
Premium Play
SG – James Harden $11,800 – Houston Rockets
Harden is the equal most expensive play of the night ($11,800) with Russell Westbrook. The two happen to be matching up on each other tonight and are also ex-teammates. Westbrook is at home and Houston’s defense against guards has been awful so we think Harden will have lower ownership. There is also less top tier shooting guard options available so we are keen on Harden as our top play if the day.
**We also like Westbrook and happy to fade Anthony Davis in most lineups
