He's posted 44-plus FanDuel points in nine straight with Embiid active. That's good news with Irving, Luka Doncic ($12,000), and James Harden ($10,300) under that same roof. The Mavs have been a shootout machine since acquiring Kyrie Irving ($9,600) with a 121.2 offensive rating and 117.7 defensive rating. However, that game is significantly lacking star power if Tyrese Haliburton ($9,200) can't go.Īs a result, you have to guess the next-best spot for studs, and I'd wager on Dallas. We know Pacers-Spurs will be high-flying, defense-optional fun. The Warriors are also still missing Stephen Curry (leg) and Andrew Wiggins (personal) for their data with the Clippers, whose report is blank. The Wizards host the fully healthy Raptors on this slate. Monte Morris (back) is now out for a third straight game in Washington tonight. Notably, they'll likely get back Devin Vassell (knee) for this one given his probable status. The visiting Pacers have Tyrese Haliburton (calf) listed as questionable to play, and the Spurs have Keldon Johnson (foot), Tre Jones (foot), and Malaki Branham (hip) listed as questionable. The injury drama on this slate is in San Antonio. Embiid was marked out on yesterday's official injury report, but given it's the left foot he's dealt with all season, it appears to be a maintenance day.

Presumably, Joel Embiid (foot) will return tonight on the second leg of Philadelphia's back-to-back in Dallas.
