Embiid (knee/ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

As expected, Embiid will shake off his probable tag due to left knee injury management and right ankle soreness. The star big man has appeared in five of the Sixers' last six games, averaging 28.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.2 blocks in 33.8 minutes per contest during that span.
