Duren closed Friday's 142-115 victory over the Hawks with 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 24 minutes.

Duren notched his seventh game with at least two blocks in Friday's blowout win. The star big man also did not record a turnover for just the second game this season. The 22-year-old center is in the midst of a breakout season, averaging 18.8 points, 11.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 blocks across 29.2 minutes per game thus far.

Embiid delivered 39 points (12-23 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 13-18 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and a steal across 32 minutes in Friday's 115-105 win over the Pacers.

This 39-point output was Embiid's best scoring performance in a regular season since Jan. 22, 2024, when he scored 70 points. The 76ers have been very cautious with Embiid's health, and the five days off seem to have helped the star big man. He notched a season-high mark in minutes played, points and rebounds in this win.

Jackson-Davis (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.

The big man was listed as probable, so it's not surprising to see him available. Don't expect him to play a significant role in the rotation, although he should see minutes off the bench. Jackson-Davis has played more than 15 minutes in each of his last two outings, something that could very well happen again Friday due to the absences of Draymond Green (personal) and Al Horford (back).

Hartenstein (calf) is not on the injury report and will be available for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Hartenstein will be available after a six-game absence due to a right soleus strain, and the big man should slot into the starting lineup right away. His return also means the Thunder will likely have their best starting lineup for the first time this season. Additionally, Hartenstein's return means Jaylin Williams should see a dip in minutes, while Jalen Williams should move to the three and Chet Holmgren will likely slide to the four.

Filipowski is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Filipowski will return to the bench after starting his last time out. The big man has been productive coming off the bench this season, averaging 9.6 points, 6.7 boards, 2.2 assists and 0.7 blocks per game when playing with the second unit.

Gafford (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Nets, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Gafford will miss a third straight game Friday, and he doesn't have a clear timetable for his return. With the big man out, Anthony Davis is expected to start at center, while Dwight Powell and Moussa Cisse will likely see more playing time. The Mavericks are thin in the frontcourt since Dereck Lively (foot) is out for the season.

Embiid (knee) will play in Friday's game against the Pacers.

The 76ers have cleared Embiid for action as they continue to monitor his left knee. The superstar big man will be looking to jump-start his season Friday following an uneven start to the year based on his lofty standards. For the campaign, Embiid has averaged 18.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 blocks in 25.1 minutes per game over nine regular-season contests.

Collins (wrist) is available for Friday's game against the Hornets.

Collins was listed as probable and widely expected to be available, so this doesn't come as a surprise. He'll add depth to the Bulls' frontcourt but is not expected to have a big role in fantasy.

Wembanyama (calf) is expected to play in Saturday's game against the Thunder, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Wembanyama has been sidelined by a calf strain since Nov. 14, but he's been traveling with the Spurs on their current road trip and is closing in on a return. Final clearance on his status was expected to be determined following Friday's practice, though San Antonio has officially listed the superstar big man as probable on its injury report. Wembanyama's presence would dampen the fantasy appeal of Luke Kornet considerably. However, the superstar center is likely to face restrictions when given the green light.

Clarke (knee) will practice with the G League's Memphis Hustle on Friday and will be recalled to the NBA directly following the session.

Clarke, who underwent a procedure to address knee synovitis Sep. 26, is seemingly making good progress based on this update. Based on previous reporting, a late-December return has been on the table for Clarke, making his status worth monitoring closely since the Grizzlies will be without Zach Edey (ankle) for multiple weeks.
