Joel Embiid

C, Philadelphia Sixers

Joel Embiid will return to action on Wednesday vs. the Pistons after missing the last five games with a sprained left shoulder.

Embiid was able to go through a full practice on Tuesday and feels good enough to return to action on Wednesday. Embiid's return impacts the entire roster as the team will run the offense through their All-Star. Al Horford will likely suffer the biggest impact to his fantasy value but can still be rostered in standard leagues. Although Embiid might struggle in his first game back, he can be started across all formats as he has proven to be second-round value this year.
