7 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center/power forward Richaun Holmes benefited from center Joel Embiid's (rest) maintenance plan on Monday, getting a few more minutes than he's used to against the Bucks. Holmes scored an efficient 13 points on 6-for-8 shooting in his 22 minutes on the floor. He was decent on the glass as well, pulling down six boards off the bench in the losing effort. Power forward/center Amir Johnson typically starts if Embiid is forced to sit, but for streaming or DFS purposes, we'd say Holmes is the player to run with in these circumstances.--Matthew Thomas

7 days agoAccording to Philadelphia 76ers head coach Nick Nurse, center Joel Embiid (knee) has consulted with "many doctors and specialists" regarding the plan for his ailing left knee. While a decision hasn't been made about how to proceed with treatment, Nurse expects one "soon-ish." It's been a horrendous year for the 76ers, a team many believed would make a deep playoff run. Unfortunately, that likely won't happen, with Philadelphia barely alive for a Play-In berth. Embiid's health is a big reason for the team's struggles, with the 31-year-old averaging only 23.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 0.9 blocks, all down from the 2023-24 campaign. Even worse, he was limited to only 19 games, mostly because of a left knee injury. With that in mind, surgery appears to still be on the table for the 2023 MVP. But with the delay in treatment, it seems there's a realistic chance this situation will follow Embiid into next season.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller

1 month agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will officially miss the remainder of the season due to the same knee issues he's been experiencing since last season. The team issued a statement that said they are working with Embiid and "top specialists" to figure out the best treatment for his ongoing knee troubles. They also stated that they're looking to better his "long-term health and performance." This means the former MVP finishes the year with 19 appearances and averages of 23.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.2 threes, and 3.3 turnovers per game. Guerschon Yabusele, Andre Drummond, and Adem Bona will split minutes at center from here on out.--Alex Fischbein - RotoBaller

1 month agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) won't suit up on Wednesday against the Knicks, as expected. The 2023 NBA MVP is listed as out for injury management purposes. But with the Sixers drifting away from a Play-In spot, fantasy managers may not see him for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign. With Guerschon Yabusele (eye) sidelined, Andre Drummond will likely get the start. Adem Bona is worth grabbing off the waiver wire, where available, considering he may be in line for increased production for at least a few games.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller

1 month agoAccording to ESPN's Shams Charania, Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) won't play against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. Charania also reports that Embiid and the 76ers are consulting with doctors and meeting with specialists after he completed new imaging on Monday. Lately, there has been speculation about whether the Sixers will shut down the 30-year-old for the remainder of the season. Fantasy managers should think about adding Andre Drummond, where available, considering he could be in line for more time on the floor moving forward if Embiid remains on the shelf. Guerschon Yabusele would be in the same boat if the big man is shut down, with the 29-year-old averaging 11.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 27 starts this season.--Andrew Lennox - RotoBaller
