We kicked off the week going 2-0 with our Underdog Fantasy NBA picks I’m now 17-4 over the last two weeks when it comes to NBA pick’em plays. For tonight I’m looking at a pair of first quarter scoring totals to target. Let’s hope to keep the good times rolling with tonight’s Underdog Fantasy NBA top picks.

 

Underdog Fantasy NBA Top Picks

Josh Green, SF Dallas Mavericks

As I alluded to in the open, we are looking at first quarter scoring projections here today and Green has his projection set at 2.5 points. Truth be told, I was hoping to find his three-point made projection available tonight as he had been hot from three-point range lately. But, with Underdog not offering his three-point projection I think taking his first quarter point projection is just as good as all we need is a single three-point field goal for this one to be marked a winner.

Green has finished with more than 2.5 points in the first quarter in six of the last eight which includes each of the last three games.

Pick: More than 2.5 1Q Points

Devin Booker, SG Phoenix Suns

Old faithful here as I love going with Booker’s first quarter point projection because he plays all 12 minutes in the quarter. Tonight, he has an elite matchup against the Bucks who rank among the league's worst defensive units, especially against opposing guards. Booker has his projection set at 8.5 points tonight, a number he has finished higher than in 8 of the last 10 games.

Pick: Higher than 8.5 1Q Points
