Joel Embiid Now Expected To Return On Tuesday
8 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against OKC. There were reports he wouldn't be back for this one. However, he was upgraded to questionable on Tuesday afternoon and is now anticipated to be on the floor. The 30-year-old was having an MVP-caliber season before suffering a knee injury in January. But with a two-month layoff, Embiid will return to try to help Philadelphia avoid the Play-In. Of course, there's a chance he'll be limited in his first game back. Yet, Embiid should still severely lower the fantasy ceilings of Mo Bamba and Paul Reed.
