Joel Embiid
76ers
Injury
Joel Embiid has been cleared to play against the Celtics in Game 5 on Tuesday, following a bout with appendicitis. The 76ers’ superstar logged 34 minutes in Sunday’s Game 4, posting 26 points, 10 rebounds, and six assists despite the team’s blowout loss. With Philadelphia facing elimination, Embiid’s efficiency and leadership will be crucial in their bid to extend the series.
