Regular Season Record-

Players to watch out for:

Philadelphia 76ers:
Joel Embiid – Three games, and Joel Embiid scored three double-doubles in the series. Nets just don’t have the answer for his prowess. In fact, he is pretty much unstoppable when on full song.
Embiid may not be scoring as heavily as James Harden or not as swashbuckling as Giannis Antetokounmpo, but he is one of the best NBA players this season. His numbers speak for his impact.
The 25-year-old is averaging 27.5 points per game in the postseason, along with an impressive 13.6 rebounds per game.

Ben Simmons – With the series level 1-1 and Sixers playing away without the injured Joel Embiid, Philadelphia needed somebody to step-up. Ben Simmons showed why he won the 2018 NBA rookie of the year as he came big when his side needed him, dropping a game-high 31 points.

Brooklyn Nets:
D’Angelo Russell – He had a productive night in game-3, scoring 21 points (6-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), along with seven rebounds, six assists, and two steals. But his team fell to defeat and now trail 1-3 in the series.
Russell has had a very good season on a personal level. As he has scored at a career-high average 21.1 points per game in the regular season.

Caris LeVert – The 24-year-old is Nets’ second best player in the post-season this year. He has averaged 21.8 in three matches, which is significantly higher than his regular season average of 13.7 points per game.

BKN vs PHI Dream11 TEAM NEWS:
Philadelphia 76ers:
Injured – None.
Questionable – Sixers’ only concern was the health of Joel Embiid. He has been playing through the pain of late but looked in a better state in the last game. He should be fine for the series defining home match.
Suspended – None.

Brooklyn Nets:
Injured – Nets will have to cope without the services of Centre Ed Davis. The 29-year-old suffered a left ankle sprain in the game-3. He was phenomenal in the first game of this series as he scored 12 points and had an incredible 16 rebounds. Allen Crabbe, meanwhile, remains a long-term absentee with a knee injury.
Questionable – None.
Suspended – None.
