Joel Embiid (knee) starting Sunday for 76ers; Matisse Thybulle back to bench

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will play in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.

What It Means:

Embiid is dealing with a small meniscus tear in his knee, so while it's encouraging to see him suiting up for tonight's game, it's unclear what kind of workload we can expect from him. With Embiid back in the lineup, Matisse Thybulle will return to the bench.

As of this writing, our models project Embiid to play 29.9 minutes against the Hawks, and to score 46.9 fantasy points in that time, with 26.3 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 2.8 assists.
