76ers waiting to choose starting center for matchup with Dallas
Philadelphia 76ers head coach Brett Brown won't decide on starting Jahlil Okafor or Richaun Holmes at center on Friday night until he sees what the Dallas Mavericks do with their lineup.
What It Means:
This will be dependent on whether the Mavericks start Dirk Nowitzki or Nerlens Noel at center. Brown might prefer Holmes' athleticism against an older Nowitzki, but regardless of who gets the nod, Philadelphia's minutes at the five will likely be split pretty evenly between the two. Holmes is the better fantasy asset right now, but their DFS value is pretty comparable.
Holmes costs $4,600 on FanDuel tonight and our models expect him to score 25.1 fantasy points (FP). Okafor ($5,400) is projected for 23.3 FP.
