    Joel Embiid Starting Tuesday Against Detroit

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will play and start against the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday. Embiid was questionable to play with foot soreness but will play through the discomfort, ending a three-game absence. If Embiid is limited in any way, Montrezl Harrell and P.J. Tucker would likely pick up the slack.

    Joel Embiid Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The big man has missed each of the last three games due to left foot soreness. In his absence, Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed have picked up additional playing time. Both players have been doing well, but Harrell is the more consistent option between the two of them. He'll be a fine streaming option while Embiid is sidelined. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Tuesday for another update on Embiid.

    Joel Embiid Won't play On Sunday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) won't play on Sunday against Detroit, marking his third consecutive absence. The big man is battling foot soreness, although it doesn't seem to be anything serious, so hopefully, he'll be back for Tuesday's rematch in Philly. In the meantime, Montrezl Harrell or Paul Reed may enter the starting lineup. However, Tobias Harris, De'Anthony Melton, and James Harden should pick up most of the slack on the offensive end.

    Joel Embiid To Remain Sidelined On Friday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The superstar big man missed Wednesday's game as well due to right foot soreness. The expectation is that Tyrese Maxey will remain in the starting five for Friday. Although, it's worth noting that Montrezl Harrell recorded 19 points with four blocks in 28 minutes of action on Wednesday. He is a risky fantasy play, but should have increased value while Embiid is off the court. The Sixers don't have many options, so Harrell is likely to play close to 30 minutes.

    Joel Embiid Will Miss Wednesday’s Game

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest vs. Indiana due to a sore left foot. The absence marks the first for Embiid since Nov. 27, paving the way for Paul Reed, Georges Niang and Montrezl Harrell to play elevated roles in the frontcourt. Without Embiid and his 33.5 PPG in the mix, James Harden, Tobias Harris and De'Anthony Melton all have elevated scoring upsides in their own right against a Pacers unit that is in the bottom third of the league in defensive efficiency. Embiid was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in December, with his next chance to suit up coming Friday against the Bulls.

    Joel Embiid Questionable On Wednesday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Indiana. Prior to Monday's meeting with New Orleans, he was on the injury report with a back problem and Embiid now has a sore left foot. He had no trouble playing through injury against the Pelicans, going off for 42 points, and it's possible that he won't be bothered by his latest ailment either. However, if that's not the case and Embiid sits out the game, Montrezl Harrell is looking at his sixth start of the campaign and Paul Reed has a chance to play an active role in the rotation. Harrell has done well with the starting unit, averaging 11.8 points and 7.2 rebounds.

    Joel Embiid To Play On Monday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) is available for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The superstar big man was considered questionable earlier in the day due to back soreness. It appears he's good to go and shouldn't be limited during this contest. Embiid was fantastic during their last meeting against the Pelicans. Hopefully, he'll be able to do significant damage against them on Monday. Fantasy managers should make sure Embiid in their lineups for this game.

    Joel Embiid Questionable For Monday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man is dealing with lower back soreness, so this will likely be more of a game-time decision. His absence would mean more playing time for Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed. Neither of them are great fantasy options, but Harrell is the better choice between the two. Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update on Embiid.

    Joel Embiid Nabs Player Of The Week Award

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week on Monday. Embiid cruised to the honor during a three-game span that saw him drop 39, 38 and 53 points in consecutive games, respectively. If Embiid had the requisite games played, he would be leading the league at 33.4 PPG, all while nearly averaging a double-double (9.8 boards) for the sixth straight season. That Embiid is having his best season from the field (career-high 53.5 percent) while taking the most shots per game (20.8) of his career solidifies his position as one of the game's preeminent scorers. He'll have just two games this week to try and repeat the honors.

    Joel Embiid Returns Against Hawks

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will return to the starting five for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The superstar center has missed each of the last four games due to a left foot sprain. The return of Embiid will mean less playing time for Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed. They were getting increased value without Embiid, but won't offer much upside with the big man healthy. Fantasy managers should expect Embiid to have a full workload, so get him back in your lineups.

    Joel Embiid Tagged As Questionable For Monday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The superstar center has missed each of the last four games due to a left foot sprain. Although, it appears he has a chance of returning for this game. There is no word on whether or not Embiid would be limited during his first game back. Paul Reed and Montrezl Harrell would lose most of their streaming appeal if Embiid does suit up for this game.

    Joel Embiid To Miss Next Two Games

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will miss at least the next two contests. The superstar big man has been diagnosed with a left mid-foot sprain, which means he'll sit out Tuesday and Friday night. This is awful for the Sixers with multiple starters already on the sideline. The combination of Shake Milton, Montrezl Harrell, Georges Niang and Paul Reed will attempt to fill the void. Milton being the best streaming option out of the bunch. Also, De'Anthony Melton is someone who is worth looking at as well, assuming he's still available in fantasy formats.

    Joel Embiid Posts Monstrous 59-Point Outing Against Jazz

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid posted an absurd career-high game as he led the team to a 105-98 win over the Utah Jazz. The perennial MVP candidate put up 59 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists, seven blocks, and one steal as he shot 19-for-28 overall and 20-for-24 from the free-throw line. Embiid absolutely dominated both sides of the ball and he now has the fifth-most points in a single game in franchise history. Fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief as he's starting to look like the league-leading scorer he was last season.

    Joel Embiid Receives Questionable Tag For Friday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) has been upgraded to questionable for the team's game against the New York Knicks. He's been suffering from a non-COVID illness that has kept him out of the last two games. After the news about James Harden (foot) missing a month of action, Embiid's health becomes that much more important. If he still can't give it a go, a combination of Montrezl Harrell, Paul Reed, and Georges Niang should receive more opportunities. The inconsistency of their playing time makes them not-so-great options as streamers.

    Joel Embiid Remains Out On Wednesday With An Illness

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) won't play on Wednesday versus Washington. The 28-year-old will now miss his second straight game while hampered by a non-COVID-related illness. De'Anthony Melton is also out, so head coach Doc Rivers will likely continue to run his starting unit into the ground. As a result, Tyrese Maxey and James Harden are expected to lead the way offensively once again. Guys like Georges Niang, Danuel House Jr., and Montrezl Harrell could also get some action. However, all three are risky fantasy options.

    Joel Embiid Questionable Wednesday With Illness

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Washington Wizards. Embiid has already missed one game with the non-COVID illness, but may have a chance to suit up in their rematch against the Wizards. While Embiid sat, the Sixers have gone small with P.J. Tucker as small-ball center and De'Anthony Melton starting. If Embiid is out again, this trend would likely continue with James Harden and Tyrese Maxey having huge usage rates yet again.

    Joel Embiid Sitting Out On Monday

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He missed shootaround and clearly he isn't feeling well enough to suit up for this game. Last time Embiid missed a game De'Anthony Melton got the spot start. Although, Tyrese Maxey went off for 44 points during that game. It's uncertain if Melton will start or if the Sixers will go big with Montrezl Harrell. Fantasy managers will have to check back and see who head coach Doc Rivers decides to start.

    Joel Embiid Misses Shootaround

    Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) did not attend shootaround on Monday. That being said, the superstar big man should be considered questionable for Monday's contest against the Washington Wizards. It sounds like Embiid is dealing with an illness, so the team is likely going to wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. Tyrese Maxey went off for 44 points last time Embiid sat out a contest. P.J Tucker is expected to have an increased role if Embiid is unable to play. Fantasy managers will have to check back closer to game time.
