Joel Embiid totaled 40 points (14-27 FG, 2-5 3PT, 10-13 FT), nineteen rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and one steal in 40 minutes in the Sixers' 131-124 win over the Jazz on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Embiid erupted for 40.0 points and 19.0 rebounds in the Sixers' overtime win over the Jazz, making it his third 40.0 point or more performance out of his past three games, as well as his third consecutive double-double performance. He has just completed playing some of his best basketball in February and will look to build on his excellent play in March. Embiid is an elite talent and is easily securing his place in the MVP conversation; he should also be securely aligned with your DFS lineup strategy anytime the Sixers are on the slate.
