Philadelphia's Joel Embiid (orbital) doubtful for Friday's Game 3
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (orbital) is listed as doubtful for Friday's Game 3 contest against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Embiid's upgrade to doubtful is an encouraging development after Philadelphia's star center cleared concussion protocol and participated in today's shoot-around. Expect Embiid to return to his normal starting role if he is active against a Miami unit allowing 39.1 points in the paint this postseason.
In 233.73 playoff minutes this season, Embiid is averaging 1.11 FanDuel points per minute.
