Won't play Saturday
Embiid (illness/knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.
Analyse
Embiid will miss both ends of the 76ers' back-to-back set due to illness and right knee injury management. His absence should allow Andre Drummond to make another start, while Adem Bona should serve as Drummond's primary backup. Embiid's next chance to play will come Tuesday against Brooklyn.

Tabbed doubtful
Embiid (illness/knee) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Analyse
Embiid is on track to miss a second consecutive game due to illness and right knee injury management. If he sits Saturday, Andre Drummond would likely draw another start, while Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow could see center minutes off the bench.

Won't play Friday
Embiid won't play Friday against the Knicks due to an illness and right knee injury management.
Analyse
Despite going through shootaround, Embiid was unable to shake off his questionable tag. The 76ers may have been planning to hold Embiid out for Friday's contest all along, as he has yet to be cleared to play in both ends of back-to-back sets. Look for Andre Drummond to see the bulk of the minutes at center Friday, but Embiid could be back in the starting five Saturday versus the Mavericks.

Goes through shootaround
Embiid (illness) was present at Friday's morning shootaround, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Analyse
Embiid remains questionable on the injury report for Friday's game against the Knicks, but it's a good sign for Philadelphia that he was able to get some shots up. Presumably, he'll make a decision after warmups. If he can't go, Andre Drummond would likely shoulder a considerable workload at center.

Questionable with illness
Embiid is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks due to an illness.
Analyse
Friday is the front half of a back-to-back for the 76ers, which could influence how they handle the superstar big man this weekend. Expect the team to provide an update on his status closer to tipoff. Should Embiid need to sit out, Andre Drummond would likely be inserted into the starting lineup and see a massive boost in fantasy appeal.

Solid numbers in losing effort
Embiid contributed 22 points (8-20 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 14 rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 loss to the Hawks.
Analyse
After pouring in a season-high 39 points in Friday's win over the Hawks, Embiid took a back seat as a scorer Sunday but excelled at attack the glass en route to notching his first double-double of the season. He's logged at least 30 minutes in three straight games, an encouraging trend as he works his way back from the arthroscopic left knee surgery he underwent back in April. The 76ers will return to action Friday in New York in the first game of a back-to-back set, so expect Embiid to sit out that game or Saturday's home date versus the Mavericks for maintenance purposes.

Available to play
Embiid (knee) is available for Sunday's game in Atlanta, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
Analyse
Embiid will look to build off Friday's 39-point performance, and he should be busy on offense due to Tyrese Maxey (illness) being out again. With Embiid active, Andre Drummond will be a less attractive target in fantasy leagues, as he'll be confined to a reserve role. Sunday will mark the first time this season that Embiid will have appeared in two games in three nights.
