Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Amir Johnson will start in place of Joel Embiid (rest) on Tuesday versus the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
Embiid is getting a breather on the front end of a back-to-back set, so Johnson will make his sixth start of the season. He's averaging 5.2 points and 4.8 rebounds in 16.2 minutes as a starter.
numberFire's models expect Johnson to score 17.4 FanDuel points on Tuesday, at a cost of $3,800.
