He's listed as doubtful.
I love Fred but this might be a blessing in disguise. Kendrick Perkins said on ESPN that he talked to Sixers assistant Sam Cassel after game 5. Apparently he admitted that Fred's injury was the worst thing to happen to them and that they (especially Harden) were having a hard time dealing with the Raptor's length right now.
Fred also struggled pretty badly against the Sixers in 2019, it's just not a great matchup for him. Add in the fact that he hasn't been 100% for a while and I'm fine with him sitting out of the lineup for now.
If the Raptors do get past the Sixers having a healthy Fred would be huge.
