DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/6/19): NBA DFS Lineups

Only two games today so there's not much that needs to be said. Without breaking it down you have two choices. Realistically, you have one choice. The Nets versus Bucks is the only game really worth targeting because of the security behind it. Jimmy Butler is considered questionable for right now, but any change in […]

Joel Embiid is Questionable Against Bulls

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is more of a rest move than a knee issue as the Sixers want to make sure Embiid is healthy for the playoffs. Expect Jonah Bolden and Boban Marjanovic to fill in at center on Saturday.

Jimmy Butler is Questionable for Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He did not play on Thursday due to back tightness, so the Sixers may decide to take the cautious approach once again.

Joel Embiid Remains Questionable on Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Embiid has missed the last three games due to left knee soreness.

James Ennis Ruled Out on Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers forward James Ennis (quad) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Ennis aggravated his right quad injury on Wednesday, so the Sixers are letting him sit this one out. J.J. Redick (quad) and Jimmy Butler (back) are also questionable for this game. T.J.
