Fantasy Impact
Embiid is listed as questionable to play on Tuesday because of a knee injury and a migraine. He missed the team's shootaround on Tuesday morning, which is a less than ideal sign for his availability. The team will need him to be available if they want any chance of making a comeback from down 3-1 in their series against the Knicks.
Joel Embiid has been listed as questionable for Game 5 versus the Knicks due to left knee injury recovery.
Fantasy Impact
Embiid was also listed as questionable for the previous four matchups in this series, but has yet to miss a game. Since this is an elimination game, it would be a surprise if he did not attempt to play. If he is unable to suit up, Paul Reed and Nicolas Batum would likely see increased minutes.

While it is not expected for him to miss any time moving forward, it is a situation worth monitoring.

Fantasy Impact
Embiid is back on the injury report as he was ahead of Game 1 and Game 2. He should remain in his usual role as the 76ers look to avoid a 3-0 deficit in the series.
