• 76ers' Joel Embiid: Will miss at least one more game

  4H ago • By RotoWire

  Embiid (knee) has been diagnosed with swelling in his left knee and has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Clippers while being set for an evaluation at some point next week, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports. Embiid is dealing with yet another injury, and this is not an ideal scenario for a Philadelphia team that is also without Paul George due to a knee injury. Given this latest update, the earliest Embiid will return to the court will be against the Rockets on Nov. 27, but that will depend on how he progresses with his recovery during the next few days. Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele will see more time at center while Embiid is sidelined.

  13H ago • By RotoWire

  Embiid (knee), who is questionable for Friday's game against the Nets, was present at the 76ers' morning shootaround but did not participate, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports. Embiid not going through shootaround bodes poorly for his chances of playing Friday. The big man appeared to aggravate his knee injury in Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies, during which he posted 35 points (10-21 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 14-14 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, a steal and a block across 35 minutes. If Embiid is sidelined, Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

  14H ago • By RotoWire

  Embiid is questionable for Friday's game against the Nets due to left knee injury management, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports. After posting 35 points (10-21 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 14-14 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 35 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies, Embiid was left off the 76ers' initial injury report for Friday's game, which was released Thursday afternoon. However, the big man was added to the report Friday morning and is now in jeopardy of missing his 11th game of the season. If he's sidelined, Andre Drummond would likely slide back into the starting lineup again, while Guerschon Yabusele could see increased usage off the bench.
