Alex Bowman typically runs well at Las Vegas as he does on most flat intermediates. He won the first Next Gen-era race in 2022 here, drawing the ire of Kyle Busch, who whined after the race about how Bowman backed into most of his victories. His luck has mostly run out since then, especially after his two injuries, but he has still finished 7th or better in five of his last nine starts and it seems likely he might be able to do it again. What might hold him back is that he has been eliminated from the NASCAR playoffs while his three Hendrick Motorsports teammates are all in the Round of 8, so they might let his performance slide to focus on the other three cars. Starting 12th, he's probably more likely to gain positions than not, but there are certainly several better options, especially considering that Bowman doesn't lead much.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
