All these are on NBA League Pass and locally unless otherwise noted.

On Monday the game I am most interested in is the Wizards vs Spurs if only to see how Kendrick Nunn is doing and of course Kyle Kuzma. Pelican and the Nuggets to see Brandon Ingram go up against the Nuggets. I like Ingram and Larry Nance Jr but for our picks sake and the Pelicans must lose. Hawks vs Suns and it is possible Booker returns at this point but nothing 100 percent solid. Murray versus Booker should be a good match up. On Thursday nothing too exciting comes to mind. Same as the 3rd; nothing too fun. On the 4th aside from the Lakers versus Pelicans nothing screams I have to watch it. Finally on Sunday only the Cavs vs Pacers looks fun.
