Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers

DraftKings Price: $10,400

If Antetokounmpo is too much cash for one guy, Joel Embiid checks in at a decent discount after having his salary decrease by $300 in the last two games. But is a discount warranted? Not so much.

The Process has been among the best fantasy producers for the month of March. In his seven games back from injury, the big man's averaging 57.5 DraftKings points across 34.3 minutes with his usage hanging around 32%, as it has all year.

Lucky him, he gets a Brooklyn Nets team that has been absolutely torched by opposing centers. According to FantasyPros, they allow 62.48 DraftKings points per game to the position, making them the only team above 62 and one of three at or above 60. In three previous matchups, Embiid has averaged 55.0 DraftKings points and 27.0 points on 60.0% shooting against them.

The Sixers' 119.75 total is in the top three on the slate, as this game's 232.0 over/under is also third. So, even more to like about Embiid, who we have projected for 53.7 DraftKings points on the evening.
