9/27/2023 0 Comments 76ers lineup![]() ![]() All indications are that Embiid will be a go - despite being listed as doubtful with a knee injury - but we’re fading both him and Harden since it’s unclear how effective Embiid will be in his return to where their offensive efficiency might not be at its usual elite level. James Harden put the 76ers on his back in Game 1, but he likely won’t need to do as much in Game 2 assuming Joel Embiid returns to the starting lineup. The Celtics don’t get much scoring from their post players, but veteran Al Horford has seen consistent minutes and could be worth a utility play as someone who can put up fantasy production in other ways besides scoring. Brogdon would likely be the biggest beneficiary and is a value utility play at only $5,800, even if Smart ends up playing. Marcus Smart is the Celtics’ third-leading scorer, but he’s questionable with a rib injury, which could lead to Derrick White and Malcolm Brogdon seeing expanded roles at guard. While Brown is also a solid Captain candidate, Tatum is the more well-rounded fantasy contributor and is worth paying up for even though he’s the most expensive player in the slate at $11,400 ($17,100 as captain). It’s clear that the Celtics will be led by Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown once again, and that clarity has us feeling confident in Tatum as a Captain pick. We’re going to break down each team from a DFS perspective to see which players are worth rostering in tonight’s single-game Showdown Captain Mode DFS contests. The 76ers and Celtics continue their series tonight, and while the Celtics are eight-point favorites at Caesars Sportsbook to get back in the win column, the 76ers could see Embiid return to the lineup tonight, even though he’s listed as doubtful.
