No surprise here, as the Sixers were already preparing to be without their superstar center to open up the first-round series against the Celtics. Andre Drummond and Adem Bona will continue to hold things down in the frontcourt until Embiid returns.

While Embiid’s status for the 76ers’ first round series against the Hornets hasn’t been made official, he’s unlikely to be ready for the start of the series. Charania reports the 76ers are preparing to begin the series without their 32-year-old superstar. Paul George and Tyrese Maxey will take on added importance in his absence. Theoretically, Embiid could be available later in the series.

Oubre scored in double figures in the 76ers’ final three games of the regular season and picked up right where he left off to kick off the postseason. His five triples matched his season high, which was great to see after he hit four triples total over the final five games before the postseason. He’ll look to stay hot in their series against the Celtics, which will start on Sunday in Boston.

Making his postseason debut, Edgecombe was able to find multiple ways to make an impact, which contributed to them getting the win. Edgecombe enjoyed a fantastic rookie season, and it isn’t a surprise that it translated to postseason success. They’ll need it to continue during their first-round matchup with the Celtics to have a chance to pull off an upset. Game 1 is scheduled for Sunday.

Drummond continues to come off the bench behind Adem Bona, and he continues to make more of an impact. He played 31 minutes to Bona’s 16, and he was far more productive. With Joel Embiid (appendicitis) Drummond will continue to be vital to the 76ers, especially as they enter into their first-round series against the Celtics, with Game 1 tipping off on Sunday.

Maxey stepped up to lead the 76ers in scoring and help them return to the playoffs. With Joel Embiid (appendicitis) still out, Maxey will have to continue to run the show for Philadelphia, which should lead to more strong scoring performances. They’ll head to Boston for Game 1 of their first-round series on Sunday. Embiid could return during the series, but it will likely be at least a few games in, meaning this will continue to be Maxey’s show to run.

Watford will be available if needed, which was expected after he was initially listed as probable. However, he played a total of 15 minutes over Philadelphia’s last nine games and appeared in just three games, all of which were decided by at least 20 points. Watford likely won’t see the floor, but if the 76ers deal with injuries, Watford will be available.

Watford lands on the injury report due to an illness, but the good news is that he’s probable to play on Wednesday. With the 76ers healthy aside from Joel Embiid (appendicitis), they should have the bodies needed to account for Watford’s absence if his condition worsens.

Jackson finished the season strong with 12.7 points per game and 5.3 assists per game in seven games in April. While the 27-year-old guard certainly showed some promise, it still remains to be seen if he’ll factor into the Pacers’ rotation next year when the team is healthy.

Maxey and the 76ers closed the season with back-to-back wins. The 25-year-old shooting guard was excellent against the Bucks on Sunday, dropping 21 points on 13 attempts from the field.

Walker started and had 17 points against the 76ers on Friday, but is set to miss Sunday’s game against the Pistons with a left foot sprain. The 22-year-old small forward had a promising season, but it remains to be seen if he can crack the Pacers’ rotation when the team is fully healthy.

The expectations for Huff were high entering this season due to the lack of other center options for the Pacers. While he has had the best season of his career, most of his value has been tied to his shot blocking, which has certainly been impressive. He matched his season high for swats in this one, but he also made a contribution on the glass. This was just the third time this season that Huff finished with double-digit rebounds. This was a fun season, but he will likely return to being a depth big behind Ivica Zubac next season.

Potter has started three of the Pacers’ last four games, and in each of those starts, he recorded a double-double. Potter signed a two-year deal with Indiana in December to help fill out some of the minutes at center. He’ll continue to play a significant role for them in their final game of the season on Sunday against the Pistons. However, it is unlikely he plays a significant role next season when the team is fully healthy.

Walker led Indiana in scoring in this game, but it wasn’t enough for them to get a second straight win. Walker has had a strong third season in the league and has taken advantage of the extra opportunity, but he hasn’t been able to shoot efficiently or contribute much defensively. Walker has shown some flashes, but it is difficult to project him playing a significant role when Indiana is healthy next season.

Edgecombe continues to stuff the stat sheet in a way that few rookies typically do. He did a little bit of everything in this game to help the 76ers end a three-game losing streak. Edgecombe has taken on a large role during his first year in the league, and he’ll need to continue to make large contributions to help the 76ers make it out of the play-in tournament. Edgecombe isn’t in contention for Rookie of the Year, but he has made a huge impact for fantasy managers and will continue to do so for a long time.

Though it wasn’t his most efficient shooting night, Maxey was able to have a strong scoring performance to help Philadelphia snap a three-game losing streak. It was also great to see Maxey have his first 30-point game since before his 10-game absence with a finger injury. With Joel Embiid (appendicitis) set to miss some time, Maxey will have to take on even more responsibility on the offensive end to carry the 76ers through the play-in tournament. That’s just more of what he’s done all season long.

Drummond was once again the backup center behind Adem Bona, but Drummond played 29 minutes to Bona’s 19. This was the second straight game that Drummond played a much larger role than Bona despite coming off the bench. This was a strong performance for Drummond, and with Joel Embiid sidelined indefinitely after undergoing an appendectomy, Drummond will be a pivotal piece for the 76ers entering the play-in tournament.

Edgecombe did many things well against Houston. He was productive from the three-point line as a scorer, but also was the lead table setter for the Sixers’ offense. And on the defensive end, the rookie guard had active hands in coming up with a pair of steals, helping round out a balanced overall performance. Edgecombe has had a very good rookie season and should only become more productive as his career lengthens.

Maxey played 33 minutes against the Rockets and finished as Philadelphia’s leading scorer. The versatile combo guard used the three-point shot to find most of his production on Thursday, while also making some contributions as a passer. While the sixth-year guards’ numbers were solid, they weren’t exceptional — the Sixers will almost certainly need Maxey to perform at a higher level down the stretch of the season, so long as Joel Embiid is out of the lineup recovering from injury.

George had one of his least impactful games of the season against the Rockets. He failed to convert any of his five three-point attempts and finished with more turnovers than made field goals on the evening. As a result, the veteran forward tied a season-low in points and scored in single digits for just the fifth time all season. The Sixers will need him to bounce back on Friday against the Pacers.

Walker was impactful across the board on Thursday — he produced as a scorer, attacked the glass, facilitated, and was disruptive on the defensive end throughout the game. As a result, the third-year forward came close to securing a double-double. Walker has now scored in double figures while securing at least six rebounds and four assists in three of the last four games. He’s contributing in all areas down the stretch of the season and will look to have another productive game on Friday against the Sixers.

Potter performed well in his 23 minutes on Thursday. He was aggressive as a shot-taker, an approach that led him to finish as the team’s second-highest scorer on the evening. However, his domination on the glass was perhaps the most impressive part of the outing; Potter’s 14 boards led all players and marked a new season high. The fifth-year center has played the best basketball of his NBA career this season; he’ll have a chance to finish strong with two games remaining.

Toppin used his 19 minutes of game action well on Thursday, missing just three shots en route to finishing as the only Pacers player with 20 or more points. The sixth-year forward also excelled on the glass and came up just one rebound shy of earning a double-double. He was one of several Indiana players to leave their mark on a game that the Pacers were comfortably in control of from start to finish.

Walker was in the Pacers’ lineup on Tuesday after missing four games with a back injury, and he logged 28 minutes. The five turnovers weren’t good, but the rebounds, assists and steals helped offset them. How Walker goes about finishing this season will be critical regarding his outlook for next season. With the Pacers getting Tyrese Haliburton back and likely adding a lottery pick, the rotation will be far more crowded than it currently is. Walker’s finish may go a long way toward him carving out a role for himself when the Pacers return to full strength.

Toppin has scored in double figures in three straight and six of his last seven games. The playing time remains limited, with the Pacers forward logging 22 minutes on Tuesday, but he’s managed to provide value on most nights.

Maxey logged 40 minutes on Monday but recorded an underwhelming final stat line. In his lowest-scoring game in over two months, inefficient shooting both inside and outside the arc was a big factor. And while Maxey came close to notching double-digit assists, he committed four turnovers in the process. Monday’s game aside, Maxey has played well down the stretch of the regular season. He’s constantly been one of the Sixers’ best fantasy performers, when healthy.

While he made four of his five three-pointers, he shot just 1-of-10 from inside the arc, resulting in an inefficient night overall.
