Matisse Thybulle starting for 76ers Saturday in place of injured Ben Simmons
Philadelphia 76ers forward Matisse Thybulle is in the lineup Saturday in the team's game against the Sacramento Kings.
What It Means:
Ben Simmons was surprisingly ruled out of action shortly before lineups were supposed to come out, and the 76ers now have another hole in the starting five. For now, that'll be filled by Thybulle, who figures to add solid perimeter defense to the first unit.
Our models project Thybulle for 4.2 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 15.8 FanDuel points across 20.5 minutes of action.
