Joel Embiid upgraded to probable for 76ers on Thursday in Game 3

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (face) has been upgraded to probable for Game 3 on Thursday against the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

Embiid will likely be a game-time decision but this is a promising sign for the 76ers' star big man, who hasn't played since injuring his face on March 28. Amir Johnson and Ersan Ilyasova have each drawn a start at center for Philadelphia in the first two games of the series.

If he plays, numberFire's models project Embiid to score 43.3 FanDuel points at a cost of $9,200 on Thursday.
