NBA DraftKings & FanDuel DFS Primer: January 21, 2023
Let’s take a look at the best plays for tonight’s NBA contests.

Joel Embiid (PHI): $11,400 DK/$11,600 FD
You’ll have to pay a pretty penny to invest in Embiid (highest-priced player on FD and second-highest on DK), but he’s well worth it when you compare him to the other studs on this slate. Since returning from his injury, Embiid leads the NBA in usage rate with a 38.6% usage rate to go along with an elite 34% rebounding rate. Sacramento is eighth in pace and playing on the second game of a back-to-back. Harden is also questionable for this one, and that would just be the gravy on top if he were to sit.
