Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid had a triple-double in Tuesday's overtime win over the Knicks. Embiid's performance wasn't pretty, with the 30-year-old scoring only 19 points, by far his fewest of the series. While DFS managers appreciated his 16 rebounds, 10 assists, and four blocks, he still had nine turnovers. As usual, Embiid was favoring his knee during the contest. Although he'll likely appear on the injury report ahead of Game 6 on Thursday night, he should be on the floor. Embiid has played better at home during the series, including a 50-point showing in Game 3, meaning he has a good chance to turn things around.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee, migraine) has officially been cleared for action ahead of Tuesday's Game 5 against the Knicks. After being listed as questionable for the contest due to knee injury recovery, Embiid also missed the morning shootaround with a migraine. However, he's set to play as Philadelphia tries to fight off elimination on Tuesday. Embiid has racked up 35.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 5.5 assists in the series, but he has a pretty bad history in elimination games. It will be interesting to see how well he copes with the situation at Madison Square Garden.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) has once again been listed as questionable on the injury report, with the team set to continue its first-round battle against the Knicks on Tuesday. Embiid, who continues to recover from a left knee injury, has so far played in all four games in the matchup, surpassing the 40-minute mark in back-to-back contests. He's posted 35.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.3 steals in the playoffs. The 2022-23 regular season MVP has previously struggled in elimination games in his career, notching only 22.0 points per game with 38.8 percent shooting.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) was available for Sunday's postseason meeting with the Knicks. Last season's MVP amassed a game-high 50 points in Game 3. However, he cooled off on the scoring end in this one, finishing with 27 points, adding 10 rebounds, six assists, three steals, and two blocks. Embiid looked good again, which is more impressive considering he's still battling a left knee issue. With that in mind, the Sixers are one game away from elimination, so Embiid should remain involved heavily in Game 5 on Tuesday night.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is active for Sunday's postseason clash with the Knicks. Most had already planned for Embiid to be out there, especially since he's appeared on the injury report since returning from knee surgery near the end of the regular season. The 30-year-old is coming off a big night, scoring 50 points in Thursday's win. He also logged 41 minutes, so it's apparent he can handle a full workload. Nonetheless, Embiid guaranteed that the Sixers would win the series, meaning he should be fired up and ready to produce for DFS managers in Game 4.
