Joel Embiid

C, Philadelphia Sixers

Joel Embiid is no longer on the injury report due to his right calf, indicating he will be an active participant for the Sixers-Pacers bout on Saturday.

Embiid presumably responded well to those full practices he took part in earlier in the week. Embiid says he paced himself specifically for the end of the season this year, and now is the time that freshness would hypothetically pay off for the unstoppable big man. As is always the case with Embiid, it is easier said than done, but it sounds like he is all systems go for Saturday's re-opener as the Sixers attempt to finally find some chemistry this season.
