NBA game odds for Monday, March 20 are provided by Caesars Sportsbook, and fantasy advice is based on ESPN 10-team leagues. An ascendant 22-year-old playmaker for the Utah Jazz just sank the Boston Celtics this past Saturday with a game-winning drive.
Without much fanfare, Talen Horton-Tucker has arrived as a statistical star in recent outings, averaging 21.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, and seven assists over his past five games.
It's a reminder to look everywhere for production; a rising player on a fringe play-in team could sway fantasy matchups. The Jazz have ruled out Jordan Clarkson ahead of tonight's tilt against the Sacramento Kings, adding to Horton-Tucker's workload as both a scorer and creator for others.
