PHI -7.5 (-105), DAL +7.5 (-115)
Game Total 236.5

Key Storylines

Sixers Lineups: Nick Nurse implied that the lineup changes on Friday night may have been matchup related, so we will have to monitor how that works moving forward. Paul Reed saw most of the minutes down the stretch so it’s too soon to give up on him in 12-team leagues but Mo Bamba would be worth having if he plays 25-plus minutes. Of course though, Bamba has never been good enough in real life to truly maintain that type of playing time.

The Three-Big Conundrum: The Mavs have employed a three-big rotation of Maxi Kleber, Dereck Lively II and Daniel Gafford when all three are healthy. It has essentially obliterated Gafford’s 12-team value so the only thing we can really do is hope for some signs of life.

Stream of the Game

Paul Reed has dropped to 50% rostered on Yahoo but he did still have a good line off the bench on Friday. Look to him for blocks, steals, rebounds and FG%.

Alternatives: Kelly Oubre Jr. for points and treys, Josh Green for threes, Dereck Lively II for blocks or Kyle Lowry for dimes, threes and steals.
