Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers

DraftKings Price: $9,800

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid missed Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons to rest. That will not happen again, as Embiid is set to take the court in what is the fourth and final matchups between these two teams this season.

Embiid--who is having a career year with averages of 26.3 points, 13.3 boards, and 3.6 assists--has been at his best against the Pistons this season. In his two matchups against them, he is putting up 36.0 points, 14.0 boards, 4.0 dimes, and 2.5 swats en route to an average of 65.0 DraftKings points.

The Pistons and Sixers are averaging a ridiculous 233.7 combined points in their three meetings this season, and there's no reason to expect we're going to see a major slowdown in this affair.

We have Embiid projected for a baseline of 49.2 DraftKings points, which equates to a value of just over 5.0 DraftKings points per $1,000.
