Joel Embiid J. Embiid

Joel Embiid (knee) officially back in action Tuesday for 76ers

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

What It Means:

Embiid is back in action for the first time since January 30. 76ers head coach Nick Nurse said Embiid will likely have a minutes limit following the extended absence. Mo Bamba (illness) was a late scratch on Tuesday, so Paul Reed will handle backup center duty.

numberFire's models project Embiid for 24.3 minutes and 39.0 FanDuel points on Tuesday.
