Claxton isn't in the starting five for Friday's game versus Philadelphia, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Claxton will return to action Friday after missing Brooklyn's previous three outings with a back injury. However, the 25-year-old center will be limited to a bench role against Philadelphia.

Bagley (groin) is listed as available for Friday's game versus the Celtics.

Bagley will play through right groin soreness, though he has yet to see the floor for more than 10 minutes in a game this season The 25-year-old has averaged 3.2 points and 2.2 rebounds across only 5.9 minutes per game in nine regular-season appearances.

Queta is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Queta will get the nod at center with Al Horford (illness) sidelined. In four previous starts this season, Queta is averaging 11.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.3 blocks across 26.3 minutes per game.

Embiid (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Nets, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Embiid is dealing with a lingering left knee injury and will not suit up two days after aggravating the injury in Wednesday's loss to Memphis. With the superstar ruled out, Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele are candidates for an increased role. Embiid's next chance to feature will come Sunday versus the Clippers.

Claxton (back) is available for Friday's game against the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Claxton was deemed probable to play Friday, and he'll indeed return to action following a three-game absence due to a lower back strain. It's unclear if the big man will handle his regular workload at center in a tough matchup against Joel Embiid and the 76ers. Claxton is averaging 8.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.2 blocks per game this season.

Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Williams has yet to make his season debut due to a sprained left foot, though he has returned to team and group activities during practice. The big man is without a timetable for a return to game action, but his next chance to debut will come Monday against the Magic.

Richards (ribs) is out for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Richards returned to practice Thursday, but he's still not ready to play and won't suit up to face the Bucks. This means the Hornets will be extremely shorthanded in the frontcourt, as they'll also be without Mark Williams (foot) and Miles Bridges (knee). Richards' next chance to play will come against the Magic on Monday.

Embiid (knee), who is questionable for Friday's game against the Nets, will go through warmups before a determination is made on his status, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Embiid is a game-time decision while navigating left knee injury management. The 76ers will take a look at the big man during warmups and likely make a decision near tipoff at 7:00 p.m. ET. The superstar didn't participate in the club's morning shootaround Friday after aggravating his knee injury in Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies.

Horford (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wizards, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Horford was a late addition to the injury report due to a non-COVID illness and will miss his second game over the Celtics' last four outings. With the veteran big man out, Neemias Queta will likely draw the start with Luke Kornet seeing an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Robbins has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pacers due to left heel soreness, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Robbins has yet to hit double-digit minutes in a single game this season, and he has averaged only 4.5 minutes per game across four appearances. The two-way center's next chance to suit up will come Saturday against the Hornets.
