Joel Embiid (Knee) Out Again Thursday Against the Spurs

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will miss his fourth consecutive game Thursday when the team travels to San Antonio to take on the Spurs. Embiid has been dealing with a bone bruise in the knee and has suited up just once since January 20th. 

In Embiid's stead over the past three games, Nerlens Noel is averaging nearly 11 points to go with 4.0 rebounds. Jahlil Okafor is also averaging 15.5 points over the past two games. 

Though, set to take on one of the top defenses in the NBA on the road, neither can be considered anywhere near a DFS-relevant option. Look elsewhere, even with a small slate of games on Thursday.
