OKLAHOMA CITY – Barring a setback, Joel Embiid will play Monday night against the Milwaukee Bucks at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
That would mark the first time the 76ers center will play on consecutive nights. He and his teammates face the Oklahoma City Thunder Sunday night at the Chesapeake Energy Arena.
“I just got told I was available,” Embiid said before Sunday’s game. “I think it’s depending on how I feel after the game. But I expect to feel great, because my body has been feeling really good.
“Hopefully, I will play tomorrow.”
He has missed at least one game of the five back-to-back situations they’ve already had this season.
