6 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will not play against the Trail Blazers on Sunday due to left knee soreness. As a result, Amir Johnson will move into the starting lineup. This will be Johnson's second start of the season, but he is not much of a DFS option in the late slate of games besides being a punt play as it is unlikely he will see much time on the court. Mike Muscala and Wilson Chandler are expected to see an increase in playing time with Embiid out. Muscala is definitely a DFS possibility as well as a streaming option in deep leagues. Chandler also could be a low-cost DFS option.--Daniel Benjamin
