Joel Embiid Stats

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of the Game 5 outing against Atlanta. The big man has been a frequent flyer on the injury report since suffering a small meniscus tear in his right knee during the previous series against Washington. Although Embiid hasn't missed a game yet, he has obviously been impacted by the ailment, at least on the scoring end, finishing the Game 4 loss by going 4-for-20 from the field. As a result, fantasy managers shouldn't be afraid to look elsewhere for DFS production on Wednesday night by keeping Dwight Howard in mind as a value option, primarily after he had 10 boards and seven points in only 12 minutes of work on Monday night.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for the Game 3 matchup against Atlanta. Embiid carried the same designation heading into the first two contests of the series but still managed to play, so he will likely be in the lineup on Friday evening. The ailment hasn't slowed him down either, primarily after he had a 40-point, 13-rebound double-double in Game 2. Despite the injury, Embiid should be on the DFS radar.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for the Game 2 matchup against Atlanta. Embiid is dealing with a slight meniscus tear in his right knee, an injury he picked up during the Game 4 loss to Washington in the previous round. However, the injury didn't slow him down, finishing the series opener against Atlanta on Sunday with 39 points, nine boards, and three blocks throughout a team-high 38 minutes. Embiid will likely play, although Doc Rivers will look to keep the Hawks' coaching staff guessing by keeping him on the injury report leading up to the opening tip.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will play during the series opener against the Hawks. Embiid is currently dealing with a small meniscus tear in his right knee and wasn't available for the Game 5 win over the Wizards. While it is certainly welcome news for fantasy managers and fans alike, it's realistic to expect a minutes cap for the big man. As a result, Dwight Howard should retain some of his DFS value.
