Jared McCain - Leading scorer in Monday's loss McCain accumulated 20 points (8-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Monday's 106-89 loss to the Heat.

Impact The rookie guard led the Sixers in scoring on the night, even with Joel Embiid in the lineup for only the third time this season. McCain is red hot right now, scoring 20-plus points in five straight games while averaging 26.6 points, 4.4 assists, 4.4 threes, 2.6 boards and 0.8 steals in 33.4 minutes a contest, but his usage will take a hit once Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) is ready to return. McCain, the 16th overall pick in the 2024 Draft, has likely done enough to keep his spot in the starting five, however.

Joel Embiid - Will start after all Embiid (illness) will start Monday's game against the Heat, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Embiid was downgraded to doubtful earlier in the day due to an illness, but he was spotted warming up ahead of Monday's tipoff and was ultimately cleared to play. It's unclear whether he'll be on any type of minutes restriction, as the team will likely monitor him closely as the game progresses.

Joel Embiid - Warming up Monday Embiid, who's listed as doubtful due to an illness, is warming up ahead of Monday's game against the Heat, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

Impact Embiid was initially listed as questionable but got downgraded to doubtful Monday morning. However, now it appears he's trending more toward questionable again. Either way, if he gets the green light, Embiid will likely be limited against Miami. The 2022-23 MVP has made only two appearances in the current campaign. He made his season debut against the Knicks on Nov. 12, playing 26 minutes while recording 13 points, five assists, three rebounds and a block. That was the first night of a back-to-back set, and Embiid was back on the sidelines the next night. However, he returned to action Friday in Orlando, posting 20 points, eight rebounds, two assists, a steal and a block in 33 minutes.

Joel Embiid - Downgraded to doubtful Embiid (illness) has been downgraded to doubtful for Monday's game against Miami, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

Impact Embiid was initially listed as questionable, but it appears that the 76ers are planning to be without their franchise player Monday. With Embiid likely to sit, Andre Drummond is a candidate to see his fantasy value increase significantly, while players such as Jared McCain, Kelly Oubre and Guerschon Yabusele could see increased roles as well.

Joel Embiid - Iffy for Monday vs. Heat Embiid (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Heat.

Impact Embiid has been a mainstay on the injury report and could miss yet another game due to an illness. While the big man's status is concerning for Monday's game, he's not listed with a knee injury anymore which is a positive sign of his progression. If the 2023 MVP is ruled out, Guerschon Yabusele and Andre Drummond are candidates for an increased role.

Paul George - Logs four steals Friday George racked up 13 points (4-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists and four steals over 36 minutes during Friday's 98-86 loss to the Magic.

Impact George was responsible for four of the 76ers' 10 steals Friday which somewhat made up for his short comings on offense, though he did finish as Philadelphia's third-leading scorer behind Jared McCain (29) and Joel Embiid (20). Through six regular-season games, George is averaging 16.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.3 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.

Joel Embiid - Scores 20 points vs. Magic Embiid supplied 20 points (5-15 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 98-86 loss to Orlando.

Impact Embiid failed to connect on his five three-point attempts Friday, but he did hit all 10 of his free throw tries and finished as the 76ers' second-leading scorer behind Jared McCain (20). Embiid did manage to crack 30-plus minutes in his second game back from a left knee injury, and with two days of rest, he could see that amount of playing time against the Heat on Monday.
