Woj: Sixers planning to list Joel Embiid (health protocols) questionable for Saturday
Philadelphia Eagles center Joel Embiid is set to be listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
The 76ers haven't officially released their injury report for Saturday, but Woj says that he'll be listed questionable with a "real possibility" that the All-Star center can return to the court. He had missed 8 straight games due to COVID-19. Keep an eye on his status over the next 24 hours. Should Embiid play, Andre Drummond would revert to a bench role.
In 9 games this season, Embiid has averaged 21.4 points, 9.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.4 blocks and 42.8 FanDuel points.
