Philadelphia 76ers DFS Spin

Joel Embiid lit up Washington on Sunday with 34 points (12-for-21 FGs, 10-for-12 FTs), eight rebounds, four assists, one steal and four blocks in a 112-93 win. As he has in nearly every game this season, Embiid absolutely dominated his matchup and provided incredible value for the fantasy managers that have him rostered. Embiid has been incredible in the month of March, scoring at least 30 points on 50% shooting in all six games this month. Unfortunately, he has also failed to grab at least 10 rebounds in all six of those games. He has been incredible all season, as he has been the second best fantasy asset in 9-cat leagues, which will continue for the rest of the year.

Cleveland Cavs DFS Spin

Cedi Osman shined off the bench on Tuesday and finished with 24 points (8-for-13 FGs), two rebounds, three assists and six 3-pointers against the Hornets. With Caris LeVert sliding into the starting lineup in place of Donovan Mitchell, Osman provided the main offensive boost off the bench. He’s had a few other big performances this season, but Cleveland’s depth has prevented his production from being consistent. They have two more games this week (Wednesday, Friday), and if Mitchell remains out, Osman should be able to provide a scoring boost. Their game on Wednesday against the 76ers is the second night of a back-to-back, so it wouldn’t be shocking for Mitchell to miss another.
