As the injury report for tomorrow’s matinee against the Houston Rockets has dropped, Joel Embiid has been upgraded to questionable after missing the last three games with left knee inflammation.
He was a full participant in practice on Sunday, his first time practicing with the team all week. Kelly Oubre Jr., who was a late scratch last Friday against the Kings, also returned to practice.

The big fella returning to the lineup Monday would be a welcomed sight — not just because it’s the reigning MVP coming back to action (though that helps a lot).
