Joel Embiid played through a sore ankle Saturday night, and it may cost him his next start. Embiid is listed as questionable for tomorrow night’s contest against the Indiana Pacers.
This news comes a day after he put up his third-highest FanDuel Fantasy Points of the season. Embiid was dominant, dropping a 42/13/6 line and 72.6 FanDuel Fantasy Points, but it wasn’t enough as the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Philadelphia 76ers in overtime.
Dwight Howard has started four games at center, and Tony Bradley has also worked his way into the starting lineup in Embiid’s absence. Expect the 76ers offense to flow through Ben Simmons tomorrow night.
