After the Sixers successfully welcomed back Joel Embiid to the court last night in a nine-point win over Minnesota, they’ll be right back at it tonight against the Grizzlies. The main question is whether Embiid will suit up for the back-to-back. Doc Rivers said after yesterday’s game that the team wouldn’t automatically sit Joel for back-to-backs, and they would see how he feels in such situations, although they would lean to ensuring proper rest. All of which is to say I’m not quite sure whether the big man will be on the court tonight. One positive is that the Sixers proved during Joel’s recent 10-game absence that they can still win games if he is sidelined.
