76ers' Robert Covington (knee, illness) will miss next three contests

Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington (knee, illness) will miss the next three games.

What It Means:

Covington will miss Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets, as well as road matchups with the Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans. We'll consider him questionable for the 76ers' tilt with the Detroit Pistons on December 11. Nik Stauskas and Gerald Henderson will benefit the most, but Hollis Thompson should see a boost in value as well.

numberFire's metrics like both Stauskas ($3,700) and Henderson ($3,700) as strong value plays on FanDuel tonight. We prefer Stauskas by a slight margin, projecting him to record 12.7 points, 2.2 3-pointers, 3.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 32.2 minutes against Denver on Monday night.
