76ers' Joel Embiid: Scores 20 points in third quarter
Embiid finished Friday's 125-112 loss to the Pistons with 23 points (7-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-10 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two blocks over 30 minutes.
Embiid was limited to just three points in the first half as the 76ers found themselves down by as many as 34 points. The former MVP came out firing out of halftime, scoring 20 points in the third quarter while going 6-for-8 from the field, though he couldn't carry that momentum into the fourth quarter. Embiid has played in two of the Sixers' last three games, and how his left knee responds over the next couple of days will determine whether he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Triple-doubles in return, out Wed.
Embiid tallied 29 points (10-23 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-9 FT), 11 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 118-116 win over the Mavericks.
Embiid returned to action Tuesday after missing Philadelphia's previous 15 outings due to left knee injury management. Though head coach Nick Nurse said prior to the game that Embiid would be limited to around 30 minutes, the 2023 NBA MVP logged a season-high 36 minutes in the narrow victory. Embiid recorded a season-high assist total in the win, coming away with his eighth career triple-double in the process. According to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the 76ers announced after the game that Embiid will be held out for the second leg of the back-to-back set Wednesday versus the Heat, but the expectation is that Embiid will be back in action Friday in Detroit.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Available against Detroit
Embiid (knee) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Pistons.
After missing 16 of the last 17 games for the 76ers, Embiid did not appear on the injury report for Philadelphia, making him available to play Friday in Detroit. In his first game back from the extended absence, the one-time NBA MVP recorded a triple-double in Tuesday's win against the Mavericks, finishing with 29 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and one steal. This is a promising sign for the team, as the superstar big man might be back to form quicker than anticipated.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Set to return Tuesday
Embiid (knee) has been cleared to play in Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
After missing the last 15 games due to left knee injury management, Embiid will return to action Wednesday upon checking out fine following a full practice Monday. According to Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com, head coach Nick Nurse will manage the superstar big man's workload Tuesday, keeping Embiid's time on the floor to around 30 minutes. Embiid is unlikely to play during the second half of Philadelphia's upcoming back-to-back set Wednesday against the Heat.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Gets questionable tag for Tuesday
Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
After going through Monday's practice, Embiid looks to be on the cusp of a return following a 15-game absence due to left knee injury management. Should the superstar big man need to miss another contest, Guerschon Yabusele would continue to hold down the fort at center for the 76ers, as Andre Drummond (toe) is also uncertain to play.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Goes through practice
Embiid (knee) participated in Monday's practice, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
The 76ers had a positive day, as everyone on the team practiced apart from Jared McCain (knee) took part in Monday's session. Head coach Nick Nurse said over the weekend that Embiid could return to the lineup by the end of this current week, and his participation Monday is another positive step in the right direction.

76ers' Joel Embiid: May be back by week's end
Head coach Nick Nurse said that he's optimistic that Embiid (knee) will return to the 76ers lineup by the end of the week after the big man completed an on-court workout Saturday, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
Embiid hasn't played since Jan. 4 while managing continued discomfort in the left knee he had surgically repaired last February, missing 15 straight games in the process. Assuming he experienced no renewed pain following Saturday's workout, Embiid should continue to ramp up throughout the week before a clearer date for his return emerges. Based on Nurse's comments, Embiid can likely be ruled out for both ends of the 76ers' Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back set versus the Mavericks and Heat, respectively, but a return to action Friday in Detroit could be more realistic.

Embiid (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Embiid continues to progress in his recovery from a left knee injury, but he has not been cleared to play Sunday and will miss his 15th straight game as a result. It's unclear whether Embiid will be given the green light to play against the Mavericks on Tuesday. With Embiid sidelined, Guerschon Yabusele will likely continue to start at center unless Andre Drummond (toe) is able to play.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Out two more games
Embiid (knee) will remain out for the 76ers' next two games Tuesday against the Lakers and Wednesday against the Kings, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
According to Neubeck, the 76ers have said that Embiid's left knee has "responded well to treatment," and he was able to go through a partial practice Monday. The 76ers will continue to take a cautious approach with Embiid, who should be viewed as questionable heading into Friday's home game versus Denver.

76ers' Joel Embiid: Out at least one more week
Embiid continues to experience swelling in his surgically repaired left knee and will receive treatment before being re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Embiid had already missed the 76ers' last six games due to a left foot sprain and had been labeled as day-to-day, but his knee apparently flared up on him during the ramp-up process. It's yet another setback for the superstar big man, who has been limited to just 13 games all season. Guerschon Yabusele will likely continue to shoulder the load in the frontcourt during Embiid's absence, and Andre Drummond (toe) could also play elevated minutes once he's cleared to return from an injury of his own.
