Tobias Harris, SF/PF, Philadelphia 76ers

DraftKings Price: $7,500

If you're looking for a game with the highest possible fantasy potential, then sticking with the Sixers/Hawks contest could be the way to go. The total for tonight's game is set at 238.5 points, by far the highest on the slate. This could look more like the All-Star game than anything.

When the two teams last met on March 23, Atlanta used a last-second floater by Trae Young to take home a 129-127 victory. Newer Sixer Tobias Harris finished with a relatively quiet 28.75 DraftKings points in that contest, but it's fair to point out that both Joel Embiid and Jimmy Butler were on the court. With Embiid out and Butler unlikely to play, a lot of potential opens up for Harris this evening.

Harris turns into a much more dominant player without Embiid. In 12 games with him, he's averaged 15.3 points, 7.5 boards, a 45.9% field goal percentage, and 31.7 DraftKings points. Those numbers rocket to 22.9 8.4, 51.4%, and 39.9 without the big man from Kansas.

Our models have Harris once again taking advantage of Embiid's absence, projecting him for 37.5 DraftKings points this evening.
