Philadelphia 76ers DFS Spin
Joel Embiid was diagnosed with a sprained right knee following an MRI on Friday and has been ruled out Saturday for the 76ers’ Game 4 matchup with the Nets, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The 76ers have a comfortable 3-0 series lead, and the good news for Embiid is that the team has optimism he could return to action as soon as early next week, when Philadelphia would play a potential Game 5 or begin preparations for a Eastern Conference semifinals series. James Harden and Tyrese Maxey will likely see their usage rates spike without Embiid on the floor, while Paul Reed could be in store for a big bump in minutes at center.
