Philadelphia 76ers DFS Spin
Joel Embiid dominated the Warriors with 46 points (13-for-23 FGs, 19-for-22 FTs), nine rebounds, eight assists, two steals, one block and one 3-pointer in a 120-112 loss on Friday. After exiting early from Wednesday’s game because of a calf issue (and a blowout), and the extra rest did wonders for him. He had his highest-scoring game since January and stuffed the stat sheet. It wasn’t enough to get the win, but he provided more than enough for the fantasy managers that were relying on him in the playoffs. They play in Phoenix on the second night of a back-to-back on Saturday, but that hasn’t impacted Embiid’s availability this season. He should dominate, per usual, as they’re still without Deandre Ayton.
Phoenix Suns DFS Spin
Chris Paul recorded a double-double on Friday with 15 points (5-for-12 FGs), six rebounds, 13 assists and one 3-pointer against Sacramento. Even at his age, CP3 continues to be among the best facilitators in the league. This was his 8th game with at least 13 assists, which is good for 5th in the league. They head into Saturday’s matchup with 76ers tied for 5th in the West with the Warriors. A loss would drop them to 6th place, while a win would move them up to 4th. CP3 has provided third round value over the past two months, and they’ll need another big game from him, which could be beneficial for fantasy managers.
