Joel Embiid posts 39/13/2/1/1 line in Game 6 loss
Joel Embiid played 40 minutes in Thursday's 118-115 loss to the Knicks, tallying 39 points (12-of-25 FGs, 13-of-13 FTs), 13 rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers.
Analysis: While Embiid's production tailed off during the fourth quarter, last season's MVP was a warrior in this series. He played through a left knee that did not look fully healed, and a case of Bell's palsy didn't help matters, either. Health has been the story throughout Embiid's career, with availability being the most significant issue. The productivity will be there, so The Process will remain an early first-round pick in most fantasy drafts in the fall. However, the emergence of Victor Wembanyama knocks Embiid down a peg to where he may no longer be a lock to come off the board within the first five picks.

NBA Injury Report
Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery) is active for Thursday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis: As expected, Embiid will play as the 76ers look to extend this series to a decisive seventh game. Should he encounter any flare-ups with the knee, Paul Reed would be the next man up in the rotation.
