For those of us fortunate enough to be off work or otherwise available on this Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we will be treated to afternoon basketball as the Philadelphia 76ers take on the Houston Rockets at 1:00pm. There’s good news and bad news on the injury report for the Sixers. Joel Embiid and Kelly Oubre Jr. both returned to practice yesterday, with Embiid upgraded to questionable. His return would be timely, not only because he’s the reigning league MVP and that’s always nice to have, but because Mo Bamba is now doubtful and we could be looking at Marcus Morris at the five or Kenneth Lofton Jr.
