Joel Embiid: Breaking News

Questionable for Game 3

Embiid (ankle) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against New York. The team mentioned after Game 2 that Embiid would be considered day-to-day moving forward, so this questionable tag aligns with this previous report. Philadelphia should have a better idea of Embiid's availability for Game 3 after watching him take part in shootaround and warmups.

Deemed day-to-day

Head coach Nick Nurse said Wednesday that Embiid will be day-to-day going forward with his ankle and hip injuries, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com. Embiid is out for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Wednesday, but it sounds like he has a chance to return when the series shifts to Philadelphia on Friday for Game 3. Andre Drummond and Adem Bona are the prime candidates to start at center for the 76ers on Wednesday.

Ruled out for Game 2

Embiid (ankle/hip) is out for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Knicks on Wednesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. This comes as a huge surprise after Embiid initially carried a probable tag. Charania notes that Embiid is dealing with ankle and hip issues, and it appears as though the fatigue from the opening-round win against Boston is catching up to him, as he was unable to participate in Wednesday's morning shootaround. The 76ers may now lean more on Andre Drummond and Adem Bona at center, but it's also possible the team relies on some small-ball lineups.
