Joel Embiid Fantasy Stats

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will sit out the upcoming back-to-back set. He has already been officially ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, and Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports that Embiid will also miss Wednesday's matchup against the Sacramento Kings. The former MVP last played on Jan. 4 and has missed 11 games since. With Andre Drummond (toe) also struggling to remain in the lineup, the 76ers have relied heavily on Guerschon Yabusele (knee) at center. Yabusele is dealing with swelling in his right knee but is expected to play in Tuesday's game.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) keeps receiving more and more bad news each week as he'll miss the team's upcoming road trip. According to the team, the former MVP will be re-evaluated in the next 7-to-10 days. While rehabbing his sprained foot, he experienced swelling in the same knee that needed surgery last season, so the Sixers didn't want to risk him coming back and hurting it again. Andre Drummond (toe) is finally listed as probable, so he should return to the starting lineup while Guerschon Yabusele (knee) is listed as questionable. They would both be the best streaming options until Embiid returns.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) won't suit up against the Knicks on Wednesday. Embiid will be out of action for the sixth consecutive contest. The 76ers previously announced that the big man remains day-to-day. While Embiid is out, Guerschon Yabusele will continue to take on extra minutes on the floor. Yasbusele posted 17 points, seven rebounds, and four assists across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 118-102 loss to the Thunder.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) didn't play in Tuesday's loss to OKC. However, it appears he has a chance of returning for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, with head coach Nick Nurse labeling the multi-time All-Star as "day-to-day." Embiid, who hasn't been as productive this season, has appeared in only 13 of Philly's 38 games during the 2024-25 campaign, most recently missing five games because of a foot sprain. With Andre Drummond (toe) uncertain for Wednesday's meeting with New York, Guerschon Yabusele, amassing 17 points, seven rebounds, and four assists on Tuesday night, could find himself back in the middle if Embiid remains sidelined.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) won't play on Tuesday night versus OKC. The veteran is averaging 24.4 points and 7.9 rebounds this season, a significant decline from the 2023-24 campaign. Even worse, he's only appeared in 13 games. At this point, fantasy managers are starting to lose hope about his long-term ability to remain healthy. With Andre Drummond (toe) also out versus the Thunder, Guerschon Yabusele, averaging 10.1 points and 6.4 rebounds in 16 starts this season, is worst starting in all fantasy formats.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) will not return to action in Sunday's matchup against Orlando. He will miss a fourth consecutive game after being initially regarded as questionable for the contest. Philadelphia will also be without Andre Drummond (toe), meaning Guerschon Yabusele is set for another busy outing. Adem Bona will serve as the backup center. Yabusele was quiet in the last game against New Orleans, but he has averaged a solid 10.8 points and 6.3 rebounds for the month.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) is questionable for Sunday's game against Orlando. The former MVP has been out for three games, but 76ers head coach Nick Nurse has labeled him day-to-day, giving hope that Embiid is close to returning. The 76ers could undoubtedly use an extra big body, with Andre Drummond (toe) also out of commission. Guerschon Yabusele and Adem Bona have shared the center minutes in recent games. Yabusele is looking at another start if Embiid doesn't return on Sunday. The Frenchman has been solid in the role, averaging 10.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.0 assists.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will miss another game due to the foot sprain he suffered against the Brooklyn Nets. While he watches from the sidelines on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans, Guerschon Yabusele will likely get the starting spot again since Andre Drummond (toe) is also out. Yabusele turned in a huge game on Wednesday with 21 points, eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and one steal while knocking down five threes. He remains the best streaming option whenever Embiid is out.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) was able to return to practice on Thursday, according to coach Nick Nurse as reported by NBC's Noah Levick. Embiid has missed the last two games for Philadelphia with a foot sprain and has been limited to just 13 games this season due to a variety of issues and injuries. He has averaged 24.4 points, 7.9 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.0 blocks in his 29.5 minutes per game, and he hasn't fully ramped up to his typical 30+ minute workload. He definitely has a chance to play on Friday in Philly's next game, which is at home against the Pelicans. Stay tuned for his official status and more updates on Embiid's potential return leading up to Friday's tip time.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will miss a second straight game on Wednesday after he was listed on the team's injury report as out for the home game against the Wizards due to a left-foot sprain. Embiid has been limited to only 13 games this season but has played in nine of the team's last 13 contests. He had back-to-back 28-point double-doubles in his last two games but sat out the team's 109-99 loss to the Suns on Monday. Andre Drummond (toe) also missed Monday's game, and Guerschon Yabusele got the start and had 14 points, 10 rebounds, a block, and an assist while playing 36 minutes. Yabusele could be lined up for a big role once again if Drummond is also out, but the big man was initially listed as questionable. With Paul George (groin) joining Embiid on the sideline, most of the Sixers' offense will have to come from Tyrese Maxey in a very favorable matchup against the Wizards.
