There are seven games on Friday's slate following a chaotic trade deadline, including the Philadelphia 76ers taking on the Detroit Pistons at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. The 76ers, currently 11th in the Eastern Conference and the Pistons, currently seventh, will face off for the third and final time this season, with the series tied 1-1. Joel Embiid was dominant in his last game out and should have an advantage on Friday night. Here are the fantasy streamers and bets to look out for tonight.
Friday's fantasy stream team
Vit Krejci, PG, Atlanta Hawks (available in 98.6% of ESPN leagues) Krejci is a solid streaming option in deeper formats after the Hawks traded De'Andre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdanovic at the deadline. With new additions Terance Mann and Bones Hyland unlikely to play, Krejci should help fill the void against the Bucks. He has averaged 13.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.0 assists per 40 minutes this season.
Nikola Jovic, PF, Miami Heat (84.1%) Jovic has taken on an expanded role for the Heat recently, and that should continue for the remainder of the season now that Jimmy Butler is a Warrior. Jovic has scored 29 or more fantasy points in five of his past six games, including two games with 45 or more. He has averaged 34.1 minutes per game over that stretch and is a reliable source of points, rebounds, and assists. He should find success against a Nets defense that has struggled this season.
Onyeka Okongwu, C, Atlanta Hawks (52.4%) Okongwu became a starter on Jan. 20 and has been excellent ever since. He has recorded 28 or more fantasy points in five straight games. Okongwu contributes across nearly every statistical category, making him a strong streaming option for Friday night.
Moody's favorite bets for Friday
Scottie Barnes under 20.5 points (-115) The Thunder are nearly 19.5-point favorites, making blowout potential high. They lead the league in defensive rating and allow the second-fewest points to power forwards. Chet Holmgren's return, even in limited minutes, will make scoring tougher for Barnes, who had just 12 points in a 37-point loss to OKC in December.
Joel Embiid over 43.5 points, rebounds and assists (-105) Embiid should be well-rested for Friday night's game after sitting out against the Heat on Wednesday. He has hit this line in six of his past 10 games and three of his past four when coming off a day's rest this season. He has also had success against the Pistons, surpassing this line in four straight matchups. With a narrow 4.5-point spread, this game projects to be competitive.
De'Aaron Fox over 7.5 assists (+105) Fox had 19 potential assists and finished with 13 assists in his Spurs debut against the Hawks on Wednesday. Fox fits well in San Antonio's offensive system. The Spurs love to run in transition, play at a fast pace and create spot-up opportunities, which plays to his strengths. He also has a great matchup against a Charlotte Hornets defense that has struggled against point guards, giving up a high number of assists over the last month. This is a strong spot for Fox.
Shams Charania reacts to the news that the Suns are trading Jusuf Nurkic and a 2026 first-round pick to the Hornets for Cody Martin, Vasilije Micic and a 2026 second-round pick.
