    • All-around showing in Game 4 loss
      Embiid provided 27 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 12-14 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and three steals across 44 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 loss to New York in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Embiid led all Philadelphia players in scoring, rebounds, blocks and steals in an all-around performance. Despite dealing with a lingering knee injury throughout the series, Embiid has played in all four games and has tallied at least 25 points, eight rebounds and five assists in three straight outings. Look for Embiid to put together another strong outing in Game 5 to help the 76ers avoid elimination in a win-or-go-home contest. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:50 pm
       
    • Balanced outing in double-double
      Anunoby produced 16 points (8-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt), 14 rebounds and three blocks over 47 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 win over the 76ers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Anunoby put forth a well-rounded performance to help New York take a commanding 3-1 lead over Philadelphia, finishing second on the team in scoring and rebounds en route to a double-double performance. Anunoby, who also recorded a team-high-tying trio of blocks, recorded his first double-double of the postseason while posting his fourth consecutive game in double figures in scoring.

    • Owns glass despite shooting woes
      Hart racked up four points (0-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-8 FT), 17 rebounds, five assists and three blocks in 46 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 victory over Philadelphia in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Hart dominated Game 4 on the glass, leading all players in the contest in rebounds to go along with a handful of assists despite not making any shots from the field in a winning effort. Hart, who ended three boards shy of the 20-rebound mark, became the first player in NBA playoff history to have over 15 rebounds and five assists while not converting on a shot from the field. Hart has impressed on the glass this postseason, hauling in 13 or more boards in three straight outings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:44 pm
       
    • Joel Embiid scores 27, goes quiet in 4th quarter
      Joel Embiid finished Sunday’s 97-92 loss to the Knicks with 27 points (7-of-19 FGs, 12-of-14 FTs), 10 rebounds, six assists, three steals, two blocks, and one 3-pointer in 44 minutes.

      Advice: The non-Embiid minutes have been problematic for the 76ers in this series, and that proved to be the difference in Game 4. Philadelphia was a minus-6 in the four first-half minutes that the reigning MVP did not play, and they lost by five. For the first time in his career (regular season or postseason), Embiid played the entire second half. While 76ers coach Nick Nurse said after the game that his star center was “feeling good and wanted to go,” Embiid was 0-of-5 from the field and scored one point in the fourth quarter. Give him credit for playing through a knee issue and a case of Bell’s palsy. 76ers players not named Embiid or Tyrese Maxey need to step up in Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:18 pm
       
    • OG Anunoby drops 16 points, 14 rebounds Sunday
      OG Anunoby played 46 minutes in New York’s Game 4 win over Philadelphia on Sunday, accumulating 16 points (8-of-16 FGs), 14 rebounds, and three blocked shots.

      Advice: Anunoby may have scored 17 points in Thursday’s Game 3 defeat, but Sunday’s performance was his best of the series. In addition to recording his first double-double, OG combined with Precious Achiuwa to shut down Joel Embiid during the fourth quarter. With Isaiah Hartenstein (8/4/2/1 in 28 minutes) sitting due to foul trouble, Anunoby and Precious Achiuwa (1/7/2/0/4 in 19 minutes) combined to limit the reigning MVP to one point on 0-of-5 shooting in the final period. It’s unknown if Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will be available for Game 5 on Tuesday, but the Anunoby/Achiuwa tandem gives Tom Thibodeau another strategy to consider.

    • Josh Hart grabs 16 rebounds in Game 4 victory
      Josh Hart accounted for four points (0-of-7 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), 16 rebounds, five assists, and three blocked shots in 45 minutes in Sunday’s 97-92 win over Philadelphia.

      Advice: After watching Hart shoot over 50% from three in the first three games of the series, Philadelphia devoted more attention to him in Game 4. While he had a brutal afternoon shooting the basketball, Hart showed that there’s more than one way to impact a game. He led all players with 16 rebounds and tallied five assists and three blocked shots. In addition to the shooting, the five turnovers were a negative, but Hart was more of a positive asset than a negative one. He’ll look to get back on track shooting-wise when the Knicks host Game 5 on Tuesday. New York leads the series three games to one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:02 pm
       
    • Good to go for Game 4
      Embiid (knee) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Embiid continues to be listed as questionable but hasn't yet missed a postseason game. He has averaged 37.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks through the first three games of the opening-round series and is coming off a 50-point explosion during Philadelphia's Game 3 win Thursday.

    • Joel Embiid (knee) available for Game 4 Sunday
      Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery) is available for Sunday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: To no one’s surprise, Embiid will play on Sunday. The reigning MVP, who has also been dealing with a mild case of Bell’s palsy, scored a playoff career-high 50 points in Thursday’s victory. The 76ers are looking to even the series at two games apiece. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:34 am
       
    • Stuffs stat line Saturday
      Porzingis logged 18 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 victory over the Heat in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Porzingis was active on both ends of the court, and even though he cooled down after a strong start in which he scored Boston's first eight points, he still finished with a solid output despite playing just 27 minutes. The limit in playing time was probably related to the nature of the game since it was a blowout from the second quarter onwards, meaning Porzingis shouldn't have problems handling his regular workload in Game 4 on Monday. Porzingis has scored 18 points in two of his three appearances in the series. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:32 pm
