Joel Embiid (rest) out Monday. Andre Drummond is going to be chalky tonight with this news, as he’s averaged 28.1 minutes per game this season as a starter and is priced just $3,700 on DraftKings and $4,400 on FanDuel. CourtIQ shows that when Embiid has been off the court, Tobias Harris sees his usage rate jump to 31% and he averages 1.2 fantasy points per minute.

Deandre Ayton (ankle) ruled out Sunday

Bismack Biyombo should start and see the bulk of the center minutes with Ayton most likely out at least one more game. Behind him, McGee and Jalen Smith should see the rest of the big man minutes. Jae Crowder has also been ruled out, meaning more minutes for Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, and possibly Ish Wainwright entering the rotation.

D'Angelo Russell (shin), Patrick Beverley (ankle), and Josh Okogie (quad) ruled out Sunday

D’Angelo Russell (shin), Patrick Beverley (ankle), and Josh Okogie (quad) have all been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Utah Jazz. With Russell and Beverley out, Jaylen Nowell and Jaden McDaniels will likely remain in the starting unit for the Timberwolves increasing their value. Anthony Edwards and Karl Anthony-Towns should carry even more of the offensive load than they are accustomed to and will need to be considered in DFS contests.
