    • Kyle Anderson (hip) questionable for Game 4 Sunday
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Suns.

      Advice: Injured during Game 1, Anderson was a DNP-CD for Game 2 and only played eight minutes in Friday’s Game 3. If he remains limited, look for Nickeil Alexander-Walker to continue to play extended minutes off the bench. Rotoworld Today, 4:44 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 4
      Anderson is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Suns due to a right hip injury, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Anderson was questionable before Game 3 on Friday, and even though he played, he logged only eight minutes off the bench. A similar workload can be expected for Sunday's contest, meaning his fantasy upside will be minimal. Rotowire.com Today, 4:44 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 4
      Embiid (knee) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 versus the Knicks.

      Advice: Embiid has been listed as questionable for every game in this series so far, but he continues to push through his knee issue and the mild case of Bell's palsy that has affected his eye. During Thursday's Game 3 win, Embiid finished with 50 points (13-19 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 19-21 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one block across 41 minutes. Rotowire.com Today, 2:57 pm
       
    • Joel Embiid (knee) questionable Sunday for Game 4
      Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery) is questionable to play in Game 4 against the Knicks on Sunday.

      Advice: Embiid will continue to be on the injury report as he manages this left knee injury, as well as Bell’s Palsy. However, he will continue to play through it. He’ll look to have another big night and try to tie the series 2-2. Rotoworld Today, 2:45 pm
       
    • Available to play
      Anderson (hip) is available for Friday's Game 3 versus the Suns, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

      Advice: Fantasy managers should exercise caution before plugging Anderson into lineups, as the forward didn't touch the floor despite being cleared to play in Game 2. It remains to be seen if he'll rejoin the rotation for Game 3. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:06 pm
       
    • Kyle Anderson (hip) cleared to play in Game 3
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) will play against the Suns in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: Slo Mo was available to play in Game 2 after getting injured in Game 1, but he didn’t end up seeing the floor at all. We’ll see if Chris Finch uses him in this one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:04 pm
       
    • Reveals medical condition after big game
      Embiid revealed after Thursday's 125-114 win over the Knicks in Game 3 of the first-round playoff series that he's being treated for a mild case of Bell's palsy, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. He finished the Game 3 win with 50 points (13-19 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 19-21 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one block across 41 minutes.

      Advice: Since making his return to action April 2 following his recovery from left knee surgery, Embiid has routinely been posting big scoring numbers, but he wasn't as efficient as usual, as he converted 44.8 percent of his field-goal attempts in his first games back from the injury. However, Embiid looked as dominant as ever Thursday as the 76ers staved off a 3-0 series deficit, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history to score 50 points on fewer than 20 field-goal attempts. Embiid's postgame revelation of his Bell's palsy diagnosis may be the bigger headline, with the center noting that he first noticed symptoms of the condition following the 76ers' Play-In Tournament victory over the Heat last week. Bell's palsy is a condition in which a person experiences facial weakness or paralysis due to injury to the seventh facial nerve. Based on Embiid's performance Thursday, his play nor his availability are expected to be affected by the issue. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:23 pm
       
    • Joel Embiid scores playoff career-high 50 points
      Joel Embiid shot 13-of-19 from the field and 19-of-21 from the foul line in Thursday’s 125-114 win over the Knicks, scoring 50 points with eight rebounds, four assists, one block, and five 3-pointers in 40 minutes.

      Advice: Embiid still doesn’t appear to be 100 percent, but the Knicks still did not have an answer for him in Game 3. The reigning MVP scored 19 of his playoff career-high 50 points from the foul line and shot well above 50% from the field. The excellent news for Embiid and the 76ers is that they’ll have another two days “off,” as Game 4 is not until Sunday afternoon. Philadelphia still trails the series by a 2-1 margin. Following the game, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Embiid has been receiving treatment for a mild case of Bell’s palsy, which first became an issue during the 76ers’ Play-In tournament win over Miami. While the left knee is why the reigning MVP continues to show up on the injury report, that isn’t the only problem he’s navigating. Rotoworld Thursday, 7:30 pm
       
    • Kyle Anderson (hip) questionable for Game 3 Friday
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Suns.

      Advice: While it was announced that Anderson was available for Tuesday’s Game 2, he did not play. Nickeil Alexander-Walker benefitted the most regarding playing time, as he logged 31 minutes off the bench. Expect a similar scenario if Anderson does not play in Game 3. Rotoworld Thursday, 5:04 pm
