Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

Moises Henriques

SIX | ALL

Apart from two half-centuries this season, the captain of the Sixers is yet to do much for the team. You can avoid picking him in your fantasy team.

9

Daniel Christian

SIX | ALL

He was one of the best performers for the Sixers in the last season. However, he has not been the same this year and can be left out of your fantasy team for this game.
