NBA PICKS

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been ruled out, which obviously shakes things up substantially. Not only do the massive rates (and also the minutes) of Giannis have to go somewhere on this team, but they have the best matchup possible going up against the Wizards. Just like we have done in these situations in the past, all of Eric Bledsoe, Khris Middleton, and Ersan Ilyasova are now tagged as Core Plays across the industry.
