Embiid (knee) doubtful for Thursday; likely to miss second straight

Joel Embiid (knee) is doubtful for Thursday's game against the Warriors, likely marking his second consecutive absence after sitting out Tuesday for right knee injury management. The 76ers might be planning for him to play in Friday's back-to-back game against the Bucks, but his troublesome injury history leaves his status uncertain. Andre Drummond is expected to see heavy reliance on Thursday.
