Is Joel Embiid Playing Tonight vs Pacers? 76ers Release Injury Report for 7′ Cameroonian Center

Joel Embiid is back in form and the 76ers will face off against the Pacers tonight. Can they snatch their first win this season? 

The Philadelphia 76ers are facing issues. What kind? We don’t know yet. But given their horrendous start to the NBA season, it looks as though it isn’t a one-and-done scenario.

The team has put up some good performances but the lackluster defense has resulted in a 0-3 start to the season. Can they rescue their campaign before they dig themselves into a deeper hole?

Joel Embiid, last year’s runner-up in the MVP race, started the season in confusing form but has picked up the slack since. Will he play the game against the Pacers tonight?

It looks like the 76ers will be reliant on Joel Embiid to carry the load and take them past the line. And we think it is high time he does that.

How will the 76ers fare after a 0-3 start?

Joel put up quite the stat line last time out. Recording a stunning 40 points and 13 rebounds. He was a force, but it wasn’t enough to lead them past the Spurs.

Tonight’s game might be a little different. The Pacers have only won one game and will face a hungry Joel Embiid and James Harden.

All expectations are on a 76ers win and we think it is the most likely outcome.
