by Bruno Mulé | 76ers Correspondent | Fri, Jan 9th 1:38pm EST
Embiid's status has improved to probable for Friday's matchup with Orlando after initially appearing as questionable on the injury report. The center has averaged 28.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 blocks across his last three outings while managing the knee issue. Philadelphia faces a back-to-back schedule with games Sunday and Monday following Friday's contest. (NBA Injury Report)
Fantasy Impact:
The upgrade suggests increased likelihood of Embiid suiting up against the Magic. His recent three-game stretch has produced consistent production despite the knee concern limiting his availability earlier in the week.
