Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers

Price: $10,700

Joel Embiid's production is down a bit lately but not for a lack of playing time.

He did see reduced minutes in a couple of blowouts at the end of November, but in his last 10 games he has played at least 35 minutes five times, and he's averaging 33.6 per game in that stretch despite the blowouts.

His 1.51 FanDuel points per minute are the fourth-most for any player with at least 250 minutes played this season, and with his minutes staying steady we can absolutely count on a bounce-back in fantasy production.

That's especially true tonight against the Brooklyn Nets, who allow the NBA's second-most FanDuel points per minute to opposing centers, thanks in part to their 21st-ranked defensive rating and 20th-ranked rebound rate.
