FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (10/24/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Joel Embiid Listed As Questionable For Friday's Game
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Nets. Embiid took a hard fall during Wednesday's win over the Pelicans, but it didn't affect him that much, as he totaled 22 points, six boards, five assists, a block, and a steal in just 26 minutes. The star big man often […]
