Jokic scores 17 points in loss to Knicks

Nikola Jokic shot 6-of-15 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Wednesday’s loss to the Knicks, scoring 17 points with six rebounds, six assists, two steals, one block, and three 3-pointers in 33 minutes. Wednesday’s performance was subpar by Jokic’s lofty standards, and early foul trouble did him no favors. The three-time MVP was whistled for two fouls in the first 1:21, with Christian Braun replacing him in the lineup with 9:48 remaining in the first quarter. Jokic did not return until there was 7:14 to go in the second, and the nine minutes are the fewest he’s played in the first half of a game since 2020. The Joker did record a complete stat line, but many fantasy managers took an unexpected hit on Wednesday.

Embiid will not play vs. Denver

Joel Embiid (knee) will not play in Friday’s game against Denver. While Embiid’s knee reportedly “responded well” to treatment, he still hasn’t reached the point where he can play games. With Andre Drummond (toe) also out, the 76ers will continue to rely on the tandem or Guerrschon Yabusele and Adem Bona to handle the center responsibilities. Yabusele needs to be rostered in standard leagues, as Embiid does not have a timeline for return.
