Joel Embiid Will Sit Out Saturday's Game
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (oblique, illness) won't play on Saturday against the Detroit Pistons. Embiid helped the 76ers defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night, and it was always unlikely that he would play in both legs of a back-to-back. Backup big men Andre Drummond and Adem Bona logged only 15 combined minutes behind Embiid on Friday and will be much more involved against Detroit. They might face a Pistons frontcourt missing Jalen Duren (illness), making it an appealing matchup for the duo.
