Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) was available for Sunday's meeting with the Bulls. His last appearance was back on November 20 in the loss to the Grizzlies. However, after weeks of uncertainty, the 30-year-old was back on the floor to post one of his best showings of the 2024-25 campaign, finishing the win by amassing 31 points, 12 rebounds, and two blocks. Without question, fantasy managers were delighted to finally see Embiid back in uniform, even if he failed to make any of his five attempts from deep. While the team will likely be overly cautious with him for the remainder of the year, he should be good to go when the Sixers play again on Friday versus the Indiana Pacers.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The former MVP has been sidelined for the last seven games due to a left knee injury, but there's a possibility he will return for Sunday's contest. If Embiid is unable to go, Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele are expected to continue taking on expanded roles. Embiid has struggled to find a rhythm this season, and fantasy managers are hoping he can return to full health soon to help get the 76ers' season back on track.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) won't play in Friday's matchup versus the Orlando Magic. Head coach Nick Nurse indicated Embiid will be ready to return once he's healthy enough. However, that won't be on Friday night, which isn't surprising to most. With Andre Drummond (ankle) questionable and Adem Bona (knee) out, Guerschon Yabusele, who is coming off a 15-point, seven-rebound effort on Wednesday, is worth being included in any fantasy lineup. However, Yabusele's outlook will change if Drummond can get on the floor.
