Joel Embiid Remains Questionable After Shootaround
5 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (hamstring), who is questionable for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls due to left hamstring tightness, was spotted at morning shootaround. Embiid hasn't sat out since missing two contests on Nov. 29 and Dec. 1 and would figure to be on the right side of the questionable tag for Monday after participating in practice. The reigning MVP is operating on another level right now, scoring at least 30 points in 11 consecutive appearances and averaging 40.0 points, 12.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 3.5 combined steals and blocks in his last six dates. If Embiid gets Monday night off against the 10-17 Bulls, however, it would set the stage for the Tyrese Maxey show and extra minutes for Nicolas Batum, Robert Covington, and Paul Reed in the middle.
