Over his last five games, Embiid is averaging 30.4 points per game which is up from his season average of 24.4. The big fella has taken games over and has thrown the Sixers on his back at times in recent games.

Sixers center Joel Embiid is questionable for Monday night's game against the Phoenix Suns as he continues to deal with a left foot sprain, according to the team's initial injury report released on Sunday afternoon.

Embiid scored a season-high 37 points on Monday in Portland, and the way he got those points was the most encouraging sign.
