Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) is officially active and in the starting lineup for the Sixers' matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. Embiid has been able to play in four of Philly's last five games, averaging 31 PPG and 9.3 RPG. These averages are what fantasy managers are more accustomed to from the 30-year-old who's been dealing with injuries for much of the past calendar year. Embiid should be considered a must start in all fantasy formats, especially against a weak Brooklyn Nets team.--Kevin Larson - RotoBaller
