Last season (2025-26)
TS%+7.6 ptsProbably real

Embiid's TS% is up 7.6 points over his 22 games since Jan 5 (63.4% vs 55.8%). Most of it is shot-making: his TS% was 3.9 points above what his shot spots predict (3.3 points below before), with Paul George out. Probably real: about 65% should hold.

Day-To-DayHead coach Nick Nurse is resting most of the vets for Saturday's exhibition, so Jabari Walker could get all the run he can handle. Embiid should return for Friday's preseason rematch with Boston. Expected back: 2026-10-16.
