PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia 76ers announced during Friday night's game against Brooklyn that Joel Embiid is dealing with swelling in his left knee and, in addition to missing the Nets game, will sit out Sunday against the LA Clippers.
Embiid originally wasn't listed on the injury report Friday morning ahead of the Brooklyn game, after he played 35 minutes and scored 35 points with 11 rebounds in a loss at Memphis on Wednesday. He was then placed on the injury report with left knee injury management, with the team saying that he was present for shootaround but didn't participate.
