NBA DFS PICK No. 1: James Harden $11,200 FanDuel $10,700 DraftKings 

The Houston Rockets will host the Los Angeles Clippers at the Toyota Center tonight. This will be a track meet as both teams rank in the top eight in pace which should bode well for James Harden as he is averaging 1.64 fantasy points per minute with a 36.6 usage percentage and 35.1 assist rate for the season. Obviously, it’s not a great matchup but Harden has seen them three-times this year and has went for 60-plus fantasy points in two of those games. With few big-time pay-up options on this small slate, Harden becomes more viable should some value open up tomorrow afternoon.

*BONUS ROUND: Jamal Murray, Andrew Wiggins 

NBA DFS PICK No. 2: Paul George $6,900 FanDuel $7,400 DraftKings 

Paul George gets a favorable matchup with the Houston Rockets who play at the 3rd fastest pace and allow the 9th most points to opposing offenses. George has averaged 1.33 fantasy points per minute with a 30.0 usage percentage and 20.4 assist rate on the season. Playing 29.0 minutes per, Goerge is shooting a respectable 43.0% from the field on 16.2 attempts all while getting you two combined steal/block. Overall, look for George to be heavily involved in this game on both ends of the floor and for his price-point is the #1 play on the slate regardless of position. 

*BONUS ROUND: Kawhi Leonard, Kyle Lowry

He is shooting 53.2% from the field on 15.2 attempts and getting two combined steal/block per.
