The Philadelphia 76ers will be without All-Star center Joel Embiid for at least the next week. The valued big man is experiencing knee soreness, and the fifth-place Sixers won't take any chances making matters worse, especially considering that it would take a losing streak of epic proportions for them to miss the playoffs.

The question then is deciding on who will most benefit from his missed time. Amir Johnson could certainly get the start at center tonight, but he's seen an average of just 16 minutes in three games he's played without Embiid this year. On top of that, the Sixers are playing the Miami Heat tonight, which means that the 6'9" Johnson would have to guard the 7'0" Hassan Whiteside. While that could work in stretches, Whiteside could quickly take advantage of the size mismatch.

The Sixers, of course, have their own seven-footer who could take on a bigger role in this matchup tonight: Boban Marjanovic. Boban, who is on his fourth team in four years, is, in a word, efficient. He is averaging 1.32 FanDuel points per minute this season. That may not be on Embiid's level, but for comparison, it's higher than the 1.19 that Clint Capela -- the second highest priced center on the slate -- has averaged this season.

Our models see Boban getting a bump to 18.4 minutes of run tonight, coming away with 25.1 FanDuel points. That's enough to make him our highest-projected value of the night.
