76ers starting Joel Embiid (orbital) in Friday's Game 3 lineup, DeAndre Jordan to bench

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (orbital) is starting in Friday's Game 3 contest against the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

Embiid will make his first start this series after Philadelphia's star center was sidelined two games with a concussion and an orbital fracture. In a matchup against a Heat unit allowing a 39.1 points in the paint this postseason, our models project Embiid to score 44.1 FanDuel points.

Embiid's projection includes 22.7 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 3.1 assists.
