76ers' Joel Embiid: Not expected to play Wednesday
Embiid (knee) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Toronto.
Despite going through Tuesday's practice, the superstar big man is likely to miss a fifth consecutive game. The 76ers could have an eye toward clearing Embiid for Thursday's matchup with Milwaukee, though he should be deemed highly questionable for that one. Andre Drummond remains worth rostering in the majority of fantasy formats for Wednesday.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Logs another practice
Embiid (knee) went through Tuesday's practice, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Coach Nick Nurse didn't go into details about Embiid, so fantasy managers will have to wait until the official injury report is released Tuesday night to gauge his status for Wednesday against the Raptors. Embiid has missed the past four games for the 76ers, but he's been practicing with the team since Sunday and appears to be moving in the right direction.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Ruled out for Monday
Embiid (knee) will not play Monday against the Clippers.
Embiid will be sidelined for a fourth straight game, but his return could be on the horizon -- Embiid was a full participant at Sunday's practice. With Adem Bona (ankle) also sidelined, Andre Drummond is likely to see a significant workload against the Clippers.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Practices Sunday
Embiid (knee) was a full participant in Sunday's practice, Derek Bodner of AllPHLY.com reports.
Embiid is trending in the right direction following a three-game absence due to a right knee issue. The Sixers are expected to provide an update on the star big man's status for Monday's game against the Clippers by Sunday night. If Embiid joins Adem Bona (ankle) on the sidelines Monday, Andre Drummond, Dominick Barlow and Trendon Watford are candidates for increased minutes.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Out again Friday
Embiid (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game in Detroit.
Embiid is still being listed as day-to-day after further testing revealed no structural damage to his right knee, but the fact that he required testing and is now set to miss his third straight game is concerning. Andre Drummond will likely continue to start in his absence with Adem Bona operating as his backup. Embiid's next chance to play will come Monday at home against the Clippers.

76ers' Joel Embiid: No structural issues in knee
Embiid (knee) doesn't have structural issues in his right knee and is listed as day-to-day, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Embiid didn't play in Tuesday's win over the Celtics, but the fact that he doesn't have structural issues is a positive sign for the franchise. The day-to-day status means Embiid might have a chance to return when the Sixers take on the Pistons on Friday, but his progress in the coming days will ultimately determine when he'll be ready to return to the court. Andre Drummond is expected to start at center until Embiid is ready to return to the lineup.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Ruled out Tuesday
Embiid (knee) won't play Tuesday against the Celtics, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
Embiid wasn't initially on the injury report, but the 76ers will hold him out for knee soreness. His next chance to play comes Friday against Detroit. In the meantime, the 76ers will likely lean on Andre Drummond and Adem Bona.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Off injury report for Tuesday
Embiid (rest) is off the 76ers' injury report for Tuesday's game against Boston.
After sitting out Sunday's loss to the Pistons -- the second leg of a back-to-back set -- Embiid will return to action against the Celtics. The star big man has yet to log more than 26 minutes in a game through six regular-season appearances, during which he has averaged 19.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.5 blocks in 23.3 minutes per contest. He has recorded shooting splits of 46.0/32.1/82.9 so far this season.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Resting Sunday
Embiid (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons.
Embiid will sit out the second half of the 76ers' back-to-back Sunday as part of his ongoing left knee management after posting 29 points in Saturday's win over the Raptors. Adem Bona and Andre Drummond are set to anchor the paint in Embiid's absence. The star center is likely to be available for the team's next matchup Tuesday against the Celtics.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Season-high 29 points vs. Toronto
Embiid logged 29 points (10-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-9 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one block over 26 minutes during the 76ers' 130-120 win over the Raptors on Saturday.
Embiid was cleared to play in Saturday's game after missing two of Philadelphia's last three contests for rest purposes. The big man continues to have his minutes restricted early on in the regular season, but he made the most of his playing time with an efficient performance from the field, finishing as the game's second-leading scorer behind teammate Tyrese Maxey (31). Embiid is unlikely to play in the second leg of the 76ers' back-to-back set against the Pistons on Sunday, so Adem Bona and Andre Drummond will likely absorb most of the center minutes against Detroit.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Available to play Saturday
Embiid (rest) will be available to play Saturday against the Raptors, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
Embiid missed the second leg of a back-to-back set Wednesday for load management, but he'll be back in action Saturday night, which should shift Adem Bona back to the second unit. After Saturday's game, the 76ers play again Sunday against the Pistons, so Embiid will likely be missing that one.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Confirmed out for Wednesday
Embiid (rest) will not play Wednesday against the Cavaliers.
Embiid, who produced 20 points (7-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists, three steals and four blocks in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 113-111 loss to the Bulls, will expectedly miss the second leg of this back-to-back set for rest. With Embiid sidelined, Adem Bona and Andre Drummond will likely soak up the bulk of the center minutes.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Strong night across board
Embiid tallied 20 points (7-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists, three steals and four blocks in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 113-111 loss to the Bulls.
Embiid was held out of Sunday's matchup for rest purposes and looked strong throughout Tuesday's clash. After a sluggish first game of the new campaign, he's followed through with four straight games of scoring 20 or more points. Embiid's production has also been decent in other areas, averaging 5.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.6 blocks in five appearances this season. Given he hasn't played both halves of a back-to-back set yet this season, Embiid can be considered doubtful for Wednesday's matchup against the Cavaliers.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Absent from injury report
Embiid (rest) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Embiid sat out Sunday against the Nets, but the stage is set for his return. That said, the 76ers have a short turnaround for Wednesday's game against Cleveland, so it's possible another maintenance day is around the corner for Embiid. The superstar center has averaged 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.0 blocks per contest in four games this season, failing to exceed 25 minutes in any outing.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Out against Brooklyn
Embiid (injury recovery) will not play Sunday against the Nets.
Sunday's game is not part of a back-to-back set, but the 76ers will continue to err on the side of caution with their franchise center. The 76ers have a back-to-back set coming up Tuesday and Wednesday, and it's safe to assume Embiid will miss one of those as well. In Embiid's absence, the 76ers will likely rely on Adem Bona and Andre Drummond.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Scores 20 points with two blocks
Embiid produced 20 points (6-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and four turnovers in 25 minutes during Friday's 109-108 loss to the Celtics.
This was a season-high in minutes for Embiid, who has looked a little better with each game this season. He did take an elbow to the face from Derrick White, but he was able to play through it, so that shouldn't be something that impacts his status for Sunday's game in Brooklyn.
