Santos (pelvis) is questionable for Friday's game against the Kings.

Santos is looking to overcome a right pelvic contusion Friday. Pat Spencer and Gary Payton could see increased minutes if Santos is unable to play.

Curry (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Kings.

As expected, Curry is expected to return for the second leg of this back-to-back set after resting against Houston. He had 17 points (5-12 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal in 25 minutes off the bench in his previous outing.

Embiid underwent a successful appendectomy Thursday, and his timeline for a return to basketball activities is uncertain, per Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com.

While the door may be open for Embiid to return at some point during the playoffs if the 76ers go on a deep run, his regular season is over. The star big man had his workload managed all year long, finishing with averages of 26.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.2 blocks in 31.6 minutes per tilt in 38 games this season. Philadelphia is set to proceed with Adem Bona and Andre Drummond as its top center choices going forward.

Broome (knee) is out for Friday's game against the Pacers.

Broome underwent surgery in February to repair a meniscus tear and remains without a timetable to return. Even when healthy, he likely won't have a regular spot in the rotation.

The 76ers are converting Terry's two-way deal to a standard contract Friday, per Tony Jones of The Athletic.

In a corresponding transaction, Philadelphia waived Cameron Payne (hamstring). Terry has averaged 4.3 points, 1.8 assists and 1.5 rebounds in 13.0 minutes per tilt over 13 games for the 76ers this season.

The 76ers are waiving Payne (hamstring) on Friday, per Tony Jones of The Athletic.

Philadelphia is converting Dalen Terry to a standard deal in a corresponding move. Payne, who's out with a hamstring strain, averaged 7.4 points, 2.6 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 17.0 minutes per tilt in 22 games this season for the 76ers.

Powell (groin) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Wizards.

The Heat initially listed Powell as questionable, but it looks as though he will be held out for maintenance. Tyler Herro (foot) has been ruled out, so the Heat will be very thin on the wings.

Herro (foot) is out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Herro's last chance to make a regular-season appearance now comes Sunday against the Hawks. Simone Fontecchio could be in line for a spot start Friday, while Kasparas Jakucionis may also see more playing time.

Eason (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against Minnesota.

Eason played through a questionable tag Thursday and remains day-to-day. During Thursday's game, he managed to play 27 minutes with 15 points, eight rebounds and two assists.

Clowney (ankle) won't be available for Friday's game against the Bucks.

Clowney is set to miss a fourth straight game Friday, remaining on what is an extensive injury report for the Nets. E.J. Liddell and Trevon Scott should continue to be in line for more frontcourt minutes.
