Jimmy Butler-Chicago Bulls (8,700): The Wizards have struggled to defend opposing wing scoring options and they’ll face Jimmy Butler of the Bulls tonight who is one of the most dynamic options on the wing in the NBA right now. Butler has run off a string of six straight games with at least 40 fantasy points after 27 points, eight boards, two assists, and a block helped him to reach that number on Saturday in Atlanta. In his two previous games, Butler had reached a double-double but not with rebounds, with assists. He can contribute in multiple categories and is the best scoring option for the Bulls right now. Vegas expects the Bulls-Wizards to be the highest scoring game of the night, so look for Butler to continue his elite-level production. ∗∗∗∗

Klay Thompson-Golden State Warriors (7,700): Thompson took a back seat scoring on Saturday with just 15 points after reeling off a run of five straight with at least 26 points. He still managed a solid fantasy game since he dished out six assists and four rebounds to finish with 28.8 fantasy points. With Curry back, he isn’t as sure a pick as he was earlier this month when he was carrying the offense, but he is still a good pick at this price since he has managed at least 40 fantasy points in five of his last six games. ∗∗∗∗
