Joel Embiid (ankle) is questionable for Friday’s game versus the Pelicans, according to Keith Pompey.

It is not certain when Embiid sustained the injury, but the team is always cautious with their All-Star center. The Sixers are on the front end of a back-to-back tonight, so they may opt to rest him tonight and see how he feels tomorrow against the Clippers. If Embiid is forced to sit out Dario Saric and Robert Covington and Ben Simmons would be the biggest beneficiaries and would immediately vault into DFS consideration.
