    Injury Report

    Philadelphia 76ers @ Miami Heat

    Game Time: 7:40 pm ET

    DraftKings Lines

    PHI +2 (-108), MIA  -2 (-112)
    Game Total 209

    Key Storylines

    Play-In Repercussions: This game seems like a must-win for the Sixers as the Heat currently hold the sixth spot in the Eastern Conference. The questionable Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris all participated in shootaround, so it seems they may be leaning towards playing and the Sixers may be something close to full strength again finally (no De’Anthony Melton or Robert Covington still though).

    Feeling the Heat: As stated above, this game is a huge one. The Pacers are also in the hunt for the sixth seed so the Heat have no ground to give here. Jimmy Butler missed shootaround due to a personal issue, but remains probable and likely to play. Tyler Herro remains sidelined and Duncan Robinson has not recuperated his 12-team upside since his return to the lineup.

    Stream of the Game

    Since it seems the guys on the Sixers will play, we will look at the Heat who have a B2B Thursday and Friday, so you’ll get two games for the price of one move. We have the possibility that they sit Jimmy Butler or someone else as well. The aforementioned Duncan Robinson is still getting plenty of minutes and is at least worth a stream for three-pointers. Caleb Martin also has a sizable role if someone already scooped Robinson, and has a more varied stat set. The only issue is the limited usage in some games.

    Sacramento Kings @ New York Knicks

    Game Time: 7:40 pm ET

    DraftKings Lines

    SAC +3 (-108), NYK -3 (-112)
    Game Total 213.5
