  • LA Clippers & Milwaukee has the most number of games remaining (6)

  • Miami could have up to seven games remaining (if they win their NBA Cup Quarterfinals matchup)

  • The dreaded AST-TO lands on Day 4 (today)

  • The four teams playing on Day 13 will depend on the results of Day 9’s NBA Cup results

  • The only day this run with more than 20 teams in action is Day 5 (tomorrow)

  • Day 8-11 & 13 have less than 8 or less teams in action, so your player options are more limited
