Devin Booker injury update\"76ersMark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images<\/p>\n

After Suns forward Devin Booker made his fifth All-Star selection<\/a>, Booker is hoping to play in his first game since January 23. While Booker’s upgraded status from out to questionable is encouraging, it’s difficult to predict if he’ll be suiting up in Saturday’s matchup against the 76ers.<\/p>\n

Amidst another All-Star campaign, Booker is averaging 25.4 points on 45.6% shooting, 6.2 assists, and 4.0 rebounds per game this season. The Suns have won four of their last six games, improving to 31-21, which is the seventh-best record in the Western Conference.<\/p>\n

As for the question of whether Devin Booker is playing tonight against the 76ers, the answer is maybe.<\/p>\n

Joel Embiid injury update<\/p>\n

76ers veteran Joel Embiid finished with 25 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, two blocks, and one steal in a 119-115 win against the Lakers. The 76ers won four consecutive games before losing two straight heading into Saturday’s matchup against the Suns.<\/p>\n

In his first two games in February, Embiid is averaging a combined 29.5 points on 55.3% shooting, including 2-for-4 from deep, 6.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks. He led the 76ers to a 128-113 win against the Clippers.<\/p>\n

However, when it comes to the question of whether is Joel Embiid playing tonight vs. the Suns, the answer is maybe.<\/p>\n
