NBA DFS Prop Picks for Friday (4/16/21) - Monkey Knife Fight

With only four games Thursday, Friday bounces back with a massive 11-game slate.

Mike Conley Will Play Versus Thunder

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (rest) will suit up for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He sat out of Monday's contest for rest purposes.
