76ers' Joel Embiid: Expected to play Thursday

Embiid (knee) is expected to play Thursday against the Heat, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Embiid is officially being listed as questionable on the injury report, but he was a full participant at shootaround, and head coach Nick Nurse said he's expecting the reigning NBA MVP to be out there. That said, the 76ers still want Embiid to get through his pregame routine before he's officially cleared, so he's essentially going to be a game-time decision.
