Is Joel Embiid Playing Tonight vs Mavericks? 76ers Release Injury Report for 6x All-Star
With Joel Embiid sitting out the last game for the Philadelphia 76ers, fans want to know if he will be back for the game against the Dallas Mavericks.
The 76ers are on fire at the moment. Currently, they sit in the 3rd seed in the Eastern Conference, just 4 games back from 1st. And among the outside contenders for an NBA title, they look the closest to turning themselves into bonafide contenders.
Buoyed by the experience of James Harden, the 76ers can go a long way without Joel. But with Embiid, they become a frightening prospect. As the tail of the season is upon us, games are gaining more importance for seeding.
