The Philadelphia 76ers will return home on Monday to play host to the Atlanta Hawks for the third time in November and the Sixers will be welcoming back a certain star big man back to the lineup.

After missing four games due to a left mid-foot sprain, Joel Embiid will return to the lineup on Monday after going through his warm-ups. The Sixers were relying on the tandem of Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed to fill the void Embiid left and they both did an admiral job, but now that the big fella’s back, they can go back to their original bench roles for Philadelphia.

Matisse Thybulle is available as well to return after missing time with a left ankle injury.

Embiid and the Sixers will be looking to build off their recent stretch where they have won three of their last four games. Now that the big fella is back, Philadelphia will be looking to build off that success and continue to grow as a team.
