6 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid returned from a three-game absence for Thursday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, packing the stat sheet on his way to the second triple-double of his career. He attempted 31 field goals for the second straight meeting versus the Bucks, this time finishing with 34 points, 13 rebounds and a career-high 13 assists. He also pitched in three blocks, two steals and three made triples, a masterful stat line in tow with his prior performances against Milwaukee. He next draws a matchup against the Chicago Bulls on Saturday, which looks to be a golden opportunity on paper, but owners will want to make sure he’s a 100 percent go before locking him into lineups.--Jesse Borek
