NBA MLK picks part 1: Fats has game props for Trae Young, D'Angelo Russell, Julius Randle, Enes Kanter, & more
Hit my first triple-double of the year thanks to Luka Doncic, but ended up 1-2 after the Sixers vs. Thunder was cancelled.
Monday MLK Day early game picks
Too many games with too much action today to give reasons for each pick. Some games would be more appealing if I had any idea who was actually going to play, so please wait until close to game time to check lineups and adjust wagering strategy accordingly.
