FanDuel

Josh Richardson , SG PHI -- $4,800

Richardson was on a “minutes limit” but still played 26 and 25 over the last two contests and is a strong option with Joel Embiid out. With Embiid off of the floor, we’re looking at a guy in Richardson who has a 22.5-percent USG and averages .88 FP/min. Brooklyn is ninth in the league in pace and Philly is 21st, so this is a nice pace up spot for Richardson who could be in line for a bigger offensive workload with Embiid out and possibly Horford too. If Richardson is taken off the minutes cap, he’s viable across all platforms and formats considering his price tag.

Jerami Grant , PF DEN -- $4,400

We saw Millsap sit on Saturday and if he sits out again, we likely see 30 minutes again from Grant. He played 31 in Millsap’s absence on Saturday and Grant put up 23.3 FD points. He’s gone for at least 20 FP in four straight and five times over his last six games. With Millsap off of the floor Grant averages .82 FP/min -- a strong average -- and now gets the Knicks who allow the fifth most FP to opposing power-forwards. Grant is a lock and load if MIllsap sits.

Mike Scott , PF PHI -- $3,700

So Horford may or may not play, but Embiid is not going to, so if Horford plays it’s likely he starts at center while Scott starts at power-forward. We’ve seen Scott start three games over his last five and in all three of those starts, he played at least 23 minutes. Twice he scored 15-plus actual points and twice he grabbed at least six rebounds, so he’s a multi-category contributor. If both Embiid AND Horford sit, we could see Scott approach and surpass 30 minutes in a really nice paced game. Scott is close to a lock and load in all formats in both sit.

DraftKings

Rajon Rondo , PG LAL -- $4,600

With LeBron James questionable, we could see Rondo slide into the starting lineup and see a hefty workload in his stead. He played 25 minutes against the Heat which shows us that his hamstring injury is all but behind him. We also saw earlier this month that he’s still a triple-double threat as he fell just one rebound shy of one. The extra points for double-doubles and triple-doubles on DraftKings are why I prefer him here. He’s definitely in play on FanDuel if he’s starting. Let's not forget that this match-up comes against the Hawks and ATL allows the second most fantasy points per game to opposing teams.

Elfrid Payton , PG NYK -- $4,400

Even with Dennis Smith Jr. back and healthy, Payton played 27 minutes against the Kings and poured in 29 FP. We’re not even getting peak Payton considering he only gave us four assists and four rebounds. He’s a triple-double threat when given big minutes and there is no reason to think he won’t get them again after playing 27 and 30 the past two games. Denver is a tough place to play, but Payton is catching the Nuggets on the second leg of a back-to-back. Payton has averaged .99 FP/min on the year which is really strong considering the extended run he’s seeing right about now.

Kevin Huerter , SG/SF -- $4,000

The young Hawks wing saw his minutes upped to 30 his last time out so if this game stays competitive, we could be looking at another scenario in which Huerter plays 30 and maybe even more than that. Huerter has averaged .88 FP/min this year with John Collins off of the court and that’s an extremely solid number. We’re looking for only 20 FP for 5X and Huerter has gone for 21-plus in seven of his last 10 games. Take advantage of this price tag for Huerter on Sunday.
