Joel Embiid Uncertain To Face Portland
2 days agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) is questionable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers. The sinus fracture is nothing new. However, Embiid's left foot sprain could jeopardize his availability for Monday night. Andre Drummond (toe), who is questionable, is worth streaming if Embiid isn't out there, especially against a Portland squad that lacks on the defensive end. But if Drummond can't get out there either, Guerschon Yabusele, averaging 10.1 points and 6.7 boards in 10 starts, would be a logical replacement for all fantasy lineups. Yabusele would also see a surge in DFS popularity. Of course, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George could also be in line for more scoring opportunities without Embiid on the floor.
