Embiid now questionable for tonight

Two days ago he played 36 minutes and scored 34 points. What happened?

DeAndre Jordan is their backup center. He had 10 points and 9 boards in 17 minutes against Brooklyn last week. He's no Embiid and at 33 he probably won't play more than 25 minutes, but he's not bad.

Injury report says back soreness, he hit the floor pretty hard once the other night.

Every victory matters so I don't care about how we stack up against them right now, especially when Allen is out for us.
So take that rest night off big fella!

Game just went off the board on FanDuel. Does that mean Embiid isn't playing? DK too.

Edit: I guess it means that he IS playing.

I mean Embiid against Mobley isn’t even fair. That’s like an 80 pound difference.

 

[stick]

Mobley can guard Joel's faceup jumper. I recall him being switched on him a number of times, hand up, miss. With the way Embiid exaggerates, Cavs gotta protect Evan from foul trouble. When Mobley is fronting the post, the next rotation needs to come in to assist if the ball is in the air. They also need to rotate to the weakside corner.

 

[Futuredome]

Embiid just handed the rookie a ball/strap combo. We know what comes next.
