Andre Drummond Returns to Bench as Embiid Starts for 76ers

Andre Drummond will return to the bench for Thursday's game against the Warriors, as Joel Embiid (knee) is back and starting for the Philadelphia 76ers. This shift places Drummond back into a reserve role, where his value is expected to dip. As a member of the second unit this season, Drummond has averaged 5.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game. The move comes as Embiid was cleared to play after initially being listed as doubtful, as reported by Austin Krell of OnPattison.com.
