Joel Embiid missed the Sixers' road win over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday due to an illness, but that might be the extent of his absence for now.

Four games relevant to Eastern Conference's packed race were played on Wednesday night. The results boosted the Sixers' chances of securing a playoff berth.

Joel Embiid played in three straight contests after returning from a 13-game absence, but missed Wednesday's game against Washington.

VJ Edgecombe helped keep the Sixers afloat amid injuries in March, averaging 18.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.3 assists across 13 contests.

Against the lowly Washington Wizards, all the Sixers needed was a pair of standout individual performances to win. They got remarkable showings from Paul George and Tyrese Maxey.
