This line is too low for Joel Embiid who is one of the highest usage players in the NBA. Even if Embiid only plays 30-32 minutes he is more than capable of eclipsing this line. I expect a competitive game environment as well.

DraftKings. Coming off of consecutive 10 rebound performances, VJ Edgecombe has proved vital for the 76ers on the glass. It’s no fluke either, as he came into the playoffs having 6+ rebounds in six straight games, and averaged 5.7 on the season. The Celtics shoot a ton of three pointers (third most per game and third highest rate), which produces longer rebounds. Edgecombe is the Sixers best perimeter rebounder, and he’s not involved in the primary defensive coverage of Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum, giving him the ability to crash. I’m betting this on the news that Joel Embiid was upgraded to questionable as I don’t see it as a big detriment to VJ’s boards (or minutes).
