NBA WED FEB 10
BEST BET – CHARLOTTE M/LINE – $2.40
The Hornets have won 4 of their last 5 and I look for them to carry over that momentum with a big win on the road against the Pacers tonight. Indiana has won 5 of 7, but 4 of those wins have come against teams that are struggling in the Nuggets, Nets, Pistons and Lakers. Bookies opened this line at 4.5 and were met with solid support forcing the Hornets into 3.5.
FANTASY SLEEPER
Gorgui Dieng, C, Minnesota Timberwolves
FanDuel Price: $6,300
Gorgui Dieng is a great value play tonight with the experience of big man Kevin Garnet again sidelined. Dieng is averaging over 35 FanDuel points over his past seven games without Garnett in the lineup. Thats led to FanDuel numbers with only two games below 30 FanDuel points as well as busting through the elite ceiling, posting a monster 51.1 FanDuel point game this past week.
