Matisse Thybulle starting for 76ers Thursday in place of Ben Simmons
Philadelphia 76ers small forward Matisse Thybulle in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Thybulle will make the start for a 76ers team that is without Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid on Thursday due to COVID-19 protocols. It will be Thybulle's third start of the season but doesn't move the needle much for fantasy managers. Shake Milton and Tyrese Maxey should both still play expanded roles off Philadelphia's bench.
Thybulle is registering a team-low 7.9 usage percentage with Simmons and Embiid off the court this season.
