76ers' Joel Embiid (knee) a game-time decision on Friday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
Embiid is reportedly 50-50 to play against the Nets on Friday, according to Doc Rivers. Embiid "did a little bit more" by the end of shootaround, but Philadelphia is being careful after the injury suffered on Wednesday. If he is active, our models expect him to play 32.8 minutes against the Nets. Andre Drummond would likely see an increased role if Embiid sits.
Embiid's Friday projection includes 27.1 points, 11.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 49.4 FanDuel points. His salary is $10,700.
