76ers' Joel Embiid (face) still not taking contact in practice
Philadelphia Phillies center Joel Embiid (face) was limited to a non-contact practice on Tuesday.
About Embiid's Tuesday practice, head coach Brett Brown said, "He’ll be doing some stuff with shooting and scripting really for the first time with his team. But what that translates to in regards to when’s he going to play for us again on a court, we don’t know." It does't sound like he'll be back for Game 3, so look for Amir Johnson to draw another start.
If Embiid does suit up on Thursday, numberFire's models project him for 43.3 FanDuel points in 30.7 minutes of action against the Miami Heat.
