Martin is expected to be back after a two-game absence. He should make a return to the starting lineup, with Guerschon Yabusele sliding over to center to replace Andre Drummond. Ricky Council IV and KJ Martin will likely both lose out on minutes off the bench.
Already playing without Joel Embiid, the 76ers lost Andre Drummond during the first quarter with a sprained right ankle. His exit and Philadelphia's lack of frontcourt options meant more playing time for Martin, who started the third quarter. He finished with his best stat line of the season and will be worth streaming if Embiid remains sidelined and Drummond misses time. Another name to be mindful of in deep leagues is Ricky Council IV, who logged 26 minutes and finished with 17 points, five rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer.
Martin will miss a second consecutive game, which should result in more rotation minutes for Ricky Council IV. How much Council potentially plays depends on Paul George (knee), who is a game-time decision for Saturday night.
