WWW - Pickle Report Week 20

The consensus MVP Runner-up has been really making a mark for himself these last few weeks, with an overall 2nd in total value since the trade deadline. Joel Embiid has rounded out his game by realizing his true defensive potential. In his last 4 matches (vs non playoff bound teams) he has doubled his block rate at 2.8 per game. This in addition to netting 1.3 3pters on a nightly basis, hitting almost 13 fts per night and scoring a blistering 38.5ppg has given Joel the extra gumption to edge ahead of the young dynamos of Tyrese Haliburton and Brook Lopez. Could Embiid the seemingly healthy duo of Harden and Embiid lead the 76ers out of first round purgatory? Considering how bad the play in teams in the east are this year, the answer is a resounding.... maybe.

As we come to the close of the fantasy season it is with a heavy heart we would like to congratulate the 3 time "Bread and Butter Pick of the Week"
