Joel Embiid, Seth Curry Likely To Be Rested
4 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) and guard Seth Curry (rest) are likely going to sit out Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The team is listing Embiid with a knee injury, but that's only so they don't get fined. The Sixers are expected to give a lot of their starters a lighter workload against the tanking Pistons. Shake Milton, Tyrese Maxey, and Matisse Thybulle would see extended minutes without Curry. Thybulle has the best fantasy value because of his upside on defense. Dwight Howard becomes a solid streaming choice and DFS option without Embiid on the court.
