Welcome to the Monday NBA DFS slate as we enter Thanksgiving Week. I won’t have a Thanksgiving article with zero NBA games on Thursday, but I wanted to thank everyone who has followed along this year.

Welcome Back, RotoBallers! Monday night tips off Thanksgiving week in the NBA with 10 games on the NBA scoreboard. DraftKings separates the 10 games into two slates, with the first seven games of the night on the main slate and the three late games on the "night" slate.

If Portland wins, Denver has to run up the score on the Spurs on Friday to advance as the top second-place team. The Nuggets currently have a better point differential than the Clippers and Suns, but they trail the Wolves and Thunder in the tiebreaker.

The Indiana Pacers made this one interesting, climbing back to within 10 points in the final quarter, but a final surge of offense from Cleveland put this one to bed. Four Cavaliers topped 20 points tonight, while Indiana’s Pascal Siakam, Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard scored a collective 79 points. Mitchell 3. Mobley 3. Hunter 3.

NBA action is intensifying, as the league is turning quickly to December. That also means the NBA Cup picture is clarifying.

Instead of on-ball screens, Miami is relying on pace (first in the NBA), off-ball movement and drives to the hoop to score. And it has revived an offense that’s typically been one of the league’s most plodding.

Point guards are the leaders on the court, setting up plays and making crucial decisions to control the game’s flow. Over the years, the NBA has seen some truly legendary players at this position whose skills and vision shaped basketball history.
