Joel Embiid Scores 36 Points In Return To Lineup
5 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid was back on the floor on Monday after missing Saturday's matchup with the Pistons, scoring a game-high 36 points in a 105-103 win over Atlanta. The Process notched his second double-double of the season by adding 13 rebounds. He also racked up five assists, three steals and one block in 33 minutes of action. Seven turnovers left a big stain on Embiid's fantasy line, but he performed very well overall, shooting 12-for-19 from the field and a perfect 10-for-10 at the line. Embiid will miss some games here and there, but he's a fantasy beast whenever he's out there. He'll try and outshine Karl-Anthony Towns next on Tuesday. Embiid has averaged close to 23 points and 10 boards in his career against Minnesota.
