Joel Embiid was instrumental in the Philadelphia 76ers' 114-111 win against the Utah Jazz on Saturday. He scored 32 points, shooting 10-of-21 from the field (47.6%), including 1-of-4 from three-point range (25%), and 11-of-13 from the free-throw line (84.6%). Embiid also contributed 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks, and 4 steals over 34 minutes.
Fantasy Impact:
Embiid's performance underscores his status as a top-tier fantasy asset. His ability to contribute across multiple categories—scoring, defensive stats, and free-throw efficiency—makes him invaluable in all formats. Fantasy managers should be aware of his recent fine for on-court behavior, but this incident doesn't diminish his on-court productivity. As long as he maintains his health and avoids further disciplinary issues, Embiid remains a must-start in all fantasy lineups.
