Joel Embiid Practices On Tuesday
1 day agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) practiced in full on Tuesday. "Good Today," said head coach Nick Nurse regarding Embiid's participation. "He seemed like he was moving good and practiced very hard today." The 30-year-old logged 38 minutes in the 76ers loss to the Raptors before the All-Star break, totaling 27 points, 12 rebounds, one steal, and one block. However, he wasn't available versus the Brooklyn Nets the following night. While that has been the norm for Embiid regarding his participation in back-to-back contests, fantasy managers will still need to wait for the official word regarding his availability heading into Thursday's game against the Celtics. If he's not out there, Guerschon Yabusele will take his spot in the rotation. Yabusele is coming off a rough showing, amassing five points, two boards, and one assist in the loss to Brooklyn. Yet, he's capable of playing better, so fantasy managers can give him another chance if Embiid can't suit up.
