Triple-doubles in win
Embiid amassed 32 points (10-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 11-12 FT), 15 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one steal across 46 minutes during Thursday's 128-122 overtime victory over the Rockets.
Analyse
Embiid dominated his matchup with Alperen Sengun, regularly bullying him in the post and helping hold the Turkish big man to just 13 points on 5-for-14 shooting. This was the first triple-double of the season for Embiid and the ninth of his career, and it was also the most minutes that Embiid has played in a regular-season game since December of 2022. He's heating up at the right time, so as long as Embiid can stay healthy, he could be on a lot of winning fantasy teams this season.

Available Thursday
Embiid (ankle) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Rockets.
Analyse

Expected to play Thursday
Embiid is listed as probable for Thursday's game against Houston due to right ankle injury management, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Analyse
Embiid sat out the second end of a back-to-back set Tuesday, but it looks like he'll be back in action for Thursday's contest. The big man is coming off back-to-back 30-point performances, and he's averaging 24.2 points per game this season.

Sitting out Tuesday
Embiid won't play Tuesday against the Suns due to right ankle injury management.
Analyse
Embiid hasn't been cleared to play both ends of back-to-back sets this season, so his absence Tuesday is fully expected. During Monday's win over the Pacers, the big man recorded 30 points (10-17 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 9-10 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 33 minutes. The 76ers are likely to lean on Adem Bona and Andre Drummond at center Tuesday in Embiid's absence.

Game-high 30 points Monday
Embiid posted 30 points (10-17 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 9-10 FT), nine rebounds and four assists over 33 minutes during the 76ers' 113-104 win over the Pacers on Monday.
Analyse
Embiid scored 20 of his game-high 30 points in the second half and had 10 attempts at the charity stripe for a second consecutive game. The 2022-23 MVP appears to have hit his stride since missing extended time earlier in the season due to knee and ankle injuries. Since Jan. 1, Embiid has connected on 53.8 percent of his field-goal attempts while averaging 26.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.9 threes and 0.8 blocks over 32.5 minutes per game.

Cleared to play Monday
Embiid (knee/illness) is available and starting Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analyse

Questionable to face Indiana
Embiid is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers due to left knee injury management.
Analyse
Embiid may miss the front end of this back-to-back set as the Sixers continue to manage his availability. The star big man has yet to suit up in both halves of a back-to-back this season, so he'll likely sit out one of Philadelphia's next two outings. Over eight appearances this month, Embiid has averaged 26.3 points, 7.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 32.3 minutes per game.

Drops 33 points in loss
Embiid totaled 33 points (10-22 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 11-12 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block in 33 minutes during Friday's 117-115 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analyse
Embiid continued his strong run of play Friday, though it wasn't enough to lift the 76ers to a win. The big man has raised his level as of late, averaging 27.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.0 blocks in 27.5 minutes per game over his past 10 appearances. While his three-point shooting has lagged at 25.3 percent from deep across 22 games this season, Embiid has otherwise been highly effective when on the floor.
