Top Joel Embiid News

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Available for Game 3

    Embiid (ankle) is available for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against New York, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

    Embiid didn't suit up for Game 2 and was considered day-to-day. However, he was spotted on the court during warmups and now officially has the green light to suit up. The 32-year-old struggled in Game 1, finishing with 14 points, four rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes of work. With Embiid available, Andre Drummond will head back to the bench after starting Wednesday night.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Going through warmups

    Embiid (ankle) was spotted going through warmups ahead of Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks, Paul Hudrick of Liberty Ballers reports.

    Embiid is still listed as questionable. However, his presence during warmups is an encouraging sign regarding his availability for Game 3. If Embiid suffers a setback and can't get on the floor, Andre Drummond and Adem Bona would likely continue to share time in the middle.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Questionable for Game 3

    Embiid (ankle) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against New York.

    The team mentioned after Game 2 that Embiid would be considered day-to-day moving forward, so this questionable tag aligns with this previous report. Philadelphia should have a better idea of Embiid's availability for Game 3 after watching him take part in shootaround and warmups.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Deemed day-to-day

    Head coach Nick Nurse said Wednesday that Embiid will be day-to-day going forward with his ankle and hip injuries, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com.

    Embiid is out for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Wednesday, but it sounds like he has a chance to return when the series shifts to Philadelphia on Friday for Game 3. Andre Drummond and Adem Bona are the prime candidates to start at center for the 76ers on Wednesday.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Ruled out for Game 2

    Embiid (ankle/hip) is out for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Wednesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    This comes as a huge surprise after Embiid initially carried a probable tag. Charania notes that Embiid is dealing with ankle and hip issues, and it appears as though the fatigue from the opening-round win against Boston is catching up to him, as he was unable to participate in Wednesday's morning shootaround. The 76ers may now lean more on Andre Drummond and Adem Bona at center, but it's also possible the team relies on some small-ball lineups.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Probable for Game 2

    Embiid (ankle) is probable for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Wednesday, per Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com.

    Embiid is dealing with a right ankle sprain, though the issue isn't expected to be severe enough to stop him from playing Wednesday. Over five appearances during the 2026 postseason to this point, the star big man has averaged 25.2 points, 8.0 rebounds and 5.8 assists in 34.2 minutes per game.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Shooting woes in Game 1 defeat

    Embiid finished Monday's 137-98 loss to New York in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 14 points (3-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 25 minutes.

    Embiid had a productive night at the charity stripe but struggled mightily from the field. After posting back-to-back double-doubles to close out the first round against Boston, the star big man couldn't carry that momentum into this one. While he still finished as Philadelphia's second-leading scorer, his struggles from beyond the arc continued -- he is shooting just 13.6 percent from deep in five postseason games. Embiid and the Sixers will look to steal a game at Madison Square Garden in Game 2 on Wednesday.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Cleared for Game 1

    Embiid (abdomen) is available and starting Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Monday.

    Embiid was tagged as probable leading up to Game 1, and he's since been given the green light to take the court. He didn't appear to be on any type of minutes restriction in the first round against Boston, as he averaged 28.0 points, 9.0 rebounds and 7.0 assists across 36.5 minutes per game in four appearances.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Probable for Game 1 on Monday

    Embiid (hip) is listed as probable for Monday's Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals versus New York.

    Embiid is only three weeks removed from an appendectomy. He also took a few shots to his surgically repaired knee during the series against Boston, causing him obvious discomfort. However, the 32-year-old is listed on the injury report because of a right hip contusion. Embiid struggled shooting the ball from deep against the Celtics, although he still played well overall. He will have a good chance to keep his productive ways going in the semifinals, considering he averaged 32.0 points, 10.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists while shooting 50.0 percent from downtown in two regular-season meetings with New York.

  • 76ers' Joel Embiid: Leads Philadelphia to Game 7 win

    Embiid finished with 34 points (12-26 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 9-11 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists and one block across 39 minutes in Saturday's 109-100 win over Boston in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Embiid had his worst showing of the series in Game 6. However, the 32-year-old turned it around Saturday by scoring a game-high 34 points. With the win, Philadelphia will advance to face New York in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Embiid took some shots to his left knee during Saturday's contest, so it wouldn't be surprising if he pops up on the injury report ahead of Game 1 on Monday night. If he can't suit up for the series opener, Adem Bona and Andre Drummond would be in line for significantly more work.
