Embiid to Miss Friday's Game vs. Bucks for Left Knee Management

Joel Embiid will miss Friday's game against the Bucks due to left knee injury management, as reported by Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com. This absence is for the second leg of Philadelphia's back-to-back. Embiid has been battling a right knee injury all season, limiting him to eight games, and now appears to be dealing with a left knee issue as well. Andre Drummond, Adem Bona, and Dominick Barlow are expected to cover center duties. His next opportunity to play is Sunday against the Lakers.
