Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers

Price: $11,000

The Atlanta Hawks make for a terrific matchup for Joel Embiid tonight.

They have played at the league's fastest pace this season, meaning there will be no shortage of possessions to contribute for Embiid, whose well-rounded production means that he's capable of picking up fantasy points on any possession.

Embiid's usage rate is above 32% for the third time in his three NBA seasons (32.1%), and he pairs that with a 17.6% rebound rate, 5.0% block rate and career-high 19.4% assist rate.

It's not just a high pace that makes the Hawks a plus matchup, either, as they rank only 25th in total rebound rate, and thanks to that fast pace they are allowing top-10 marks in both rebounds and assists, as well as the 14th-most points per game.
