Embiid will sit out Tuesday's matchup with the Warriors due to right ankle and knee injury management. The absence comes on the second night of a back-to-back for Philadelphia, with Embiid expected to return Thursday against the Lakers. (NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact:

Andre Drummond is projected to draw the start at center in Embiid's place. The rest day on the back-to-back sets up Embiid for Thursday's contest, maintaining the injury management approach that's kept him available for most single-game nights this season.
