76ers' Joel Embiid (knee) questionable for Game 5 Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee sprain) is questionable to play in the team's Tuesday game against the Boston Celtics.
What It Means:
The 76ers were able to even the score in their series with the Celtics, but will now have to head back to Boston for Game 5. Embiid has been dealing with a knee injury, but seems likelier to play than to sit as of this writing.
Embiid is projected to score 45.9 fantasy points against the Celtics on Tuesday, with 24.3 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 3.4 assists.
