Joel Embiid Will Get MRI On Knee
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will have an MRI on his knee after exiting Friday's game against the Wizards. Embiid went to the floor after a dunk, but was able to limp off the floor. It sounds like Embiid hyper-extended the knee and should avoid any long-term issue, but he could wind up missing some […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball (3/13/21) Picks: NBA DFS Lineups
Five of the seven games on the Saturday slate have implied totals over 228 points, so we will have plenty of options to choose from for DFS studs and value.

The star big man has scored at […]

Although there are seven games on Friday's slate, only five games have been posted so far.
