Embiid It Is!

Joel Embiid despite that appendectomy has been playing exceptionally well in his games back. In Game 6, he is truly available. He gets my pick. And so is Alupin's...

With the Philadelphia 76ers trailing the Celtics 3-2, this is the definitive window to liquidate Embiid. While Jamal Murray is a high-value asset, Embiid’s statistical ceiling in a home elimination game is the highest on the slate.

The Usage Floor: Embiid is the sun the Sixers' orbit around. Despite being 21 days post-appendectomy, he logged nearly 40 minutes in Game 5, proving his conditioning can withstand the playoff grind.

Production Continuity: He is coming off a 33-point, 10-rebound performance. In a "win or go home" scenario at Wells Fargo Center, his free-throw volume and rebounding floor make him a safer aggregate bet than a perimeter-dependent player like Murray.

The "Zero Event" Risk: If Boston closes the series tonight, any points not extracted from Embiid now are lost forever. We cannot afford to "save" him for a Game 7 that might never happen.

For those who already used Embiid or Jokic, Jamal Murray, Jalen Johnson and CJ McCollum are nice pickups.

  2. Today's picks:

    Mine: RJ Barrett
    Alupin: Jabari Smith

    Basically just take your best available remaining player in the losing teams.

    1. In the Fantasy Postseason league I'm in, there's a round multiplier. As such, I saved Cade Cunningham and the entire Pistons roster. The first round hasn't been going great for me, but having Cade next round could flip the script!

    2. 19 points in the 2nd half, was 60-38 at half! The Pistons were being considered possibly the worst #1 seed in history.... it looks like they've avoided that!
