Joel Embiid Will Miss Monday’s Game
3 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will miss Monday's game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. Embiid was a late scratch for Saturday's showdown against the Denver Nuggets due to soreness in his left knee and will sit out Monday's first part of Philly's back-to-back. The NBA's scoring leader (36.0 points per game) sets his sights toward returning for Tuesday's outing against the Golden State Warriors. After going off for a 30-point, 13-rebound double-double on Saturday, Paul Reed remains a streaming option for multiple fantasy categories. Reed is averaging 12.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.2 steals in 11 games without Embiid this season.
