    • Joel Embiid (knee) questionable for Game 6 Thurs.
      Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: Embiid remains on the injury report, but the good news is that the migraine headache is no longer an issue. Look for him to log heavy minutes as the 76ers attempt to force a decisive seventh game. Rotoworld Wednesday, 4:32 pm
       
    • Khris Middleton, Patrick Beverley probable Thu.
      Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) and Patrick Beverley (right oblique muscle strain) are listed as probable for the Bucks’ Thursday meeting with the Pacers.

      Advice: Middleton and Beverley were crucial to Milwaukee’s Game 5 upset. Middleton scored a game-high 29 points while Beveley chipped in with a game-high 12 assists. Both players will likely carry heavy workloads in Game 6, as Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo are doubtful. Rotoworld Wednesday, 2:54 pm
       
    • Considered probable
      Middleton (ankle) is probable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Middleton sprained his right ankle in Game 2 but continues to play through the pain and will likely do so again Thursday. Over the last three matchups, Middleton has carried the Bucks, averaging 32.0 points, 10.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 40.3 minutes per game. With Damian Lillard (calf) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) both doubtful, Middleton should be in store for a hefty workload during Game 6. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 2:35 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 6
      Embiid (knee) is questionable for Game 6 against the Knicks on Thursday.

      Advice: Embiid has been listed as questionable for every game in this series so far, but he's yet to miss a game, so he feels much closer to probable. While the reigning MVP hasn't looked 100 percent, he continues to stuff the stat sheet and has averaged 31.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 steals in 41.8 minutes.

    • Triple-doubles in win
      Embiid ended with 19 points (7-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 16 rebounds, 10 assists, four blocks and one steal in 48 minutes during Tuesday's 112-106 overtime win over the Knicks in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: This was considered an off game for Embiid, yet he still managed a triple-double to keep the 76ers alive in the playoffs. Embiid wasn't quite himself and was moving around pretty slowly, as he was battling both a migraine and some left knee soreness. The 76ers will be hopeful that Embiid will feel more like himself for Game 6 on Thursday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:46 am
       
    • Khris Middleton posts 29/12/5 line in Game 5 win
      Khris Middleton led the Bucks with 29 points (9-of-20 FGs), 12 rebounds, five assists and four triples in a 115-92 win over the Pacers on Tuesday in Game 5.

      Advice: With the Bucks playing without their top two scorers, Khris Middleton stepped up as one of the heroes of Game 5. He and Bobby Portis each scored 29 points to lead the team in scoring and force a Game 6 on Thursday. It is unclear if Damian Lillard and/or Giannis Antetokounmpo will be back, but if they aren’t, Middleton will be the primary scoring option once again. He is continuing to deal with a right ankle sprain, but he should continue to keep the Bucks in the fight. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:13 pm
       
    • Joel Embiid records triple-double in Game 5 win
      Joel Embiid recorded a triple-double on Tuesday with 19 points (7-of-19 FGs), 16 rebounds, 10 assists, one steal, five blocks, one triple and nine turnovers in Game 5 against New York.

      Advice: Embiid has clearly been playing through injuries throughout the series, and it showed with his performance in this game. It wasn’t all bad, and he was still able to make some big plays late. The triple-double also helps make his night look a little better, but the poor shooting and plethora of turnovers were more indicative of his performance. Still, they were able to steal a win on the road, which shifts the series back to Philly for Game 6. They will still have to win another game in New York to win the series, and if they want to do that, Embiid will have to be better, even if he’s hurting. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:16 pm
       
    • Khris Middleton, Patrick Beverley available Tues.
      Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) and Patrick Beverley (right oblique muscle strain) will play in Game 5 against the Pacers on Tuesday.

      Advice: Both players were initially listed as probable and have officially been cleared to play. Beverley will continue to join Middleton in the starting unit, though he only played 21 minutes in their last game. Doc Rivers also leaned heavily on guys like Andre Jackson Jr., AJ Green and Pat Connaughton off the bench. Rotoworld Tuesday, 4:51 pm
       
    • Good to go Tuesday
      Middleton (ankle) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers, Jeremiah Johnson of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

      Advice: Middleton has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite a right ankle sprain. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Damian Lillard (Achilles) out, Middleton will likely continue to be the focal point of Milwaukee's offense. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:50 pm
