Tyrese Maxey and the Philadelphia 76ers (31-26) are set to face off against the Indiana Pacers (15-43) at 7 PM ET on Tuesday night.
The 76ers have fallen short in four of their last five games but are coming off a morale-boosting 27-point victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Meanwhile, the Pacers have lost seven of their last nine matchups, with their only wins coming narrowly over the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets.

This may not be the most ideal matchup for Embiid's return, considering the vast majority of Indiana's roster is on the injury report. In other words, the 76ers should not need the seven-time All-Star to emerge victorious against a shorthanded Pacers team.
Although the more time Embiid and Maxey can spend building an on-court relationship this season, the better.
Regardless of if Embiid decides to suit up, it's a positive for 76ers fans to see his status upgraded to questionable. He has still not appeared since prior to the All-Star break.
