We have a more relaxed, 5-game slate after an action-packed last two days of basketball.

With six games on the main slate, you really don't need all that much value tonight. You will need that one sleeper to come in clutch, but other than that, go with the safer, mid-tier priced options.

The 10th Friday of the NBA season is here and upon us. There is not a ton of great matchups despite there being 10 games on the docket. The best matchup will likely be the Bucks and Celtics.
