The incredible Stephen Curry made an MVP shot to win one of the best NBA games of this season and many others. My guy Kevin Durant was superb until fouling out in the first minute of overtime. None of Sunday’s action is nearly as interesting but it’s a brand new DFS season. [Read more…]
What a fantastic game tonight, as the Road Warriors are in Oklahoma City. Russell Westbrook $11000 and Stephen Curry $10700 are capable of anything. Both took a back seat to Kevin Durant $10100, who had 40 points and 14 rebounds (in a losing cause) when they met three weeks ago. [Read more…]
