Daily News | Joel Embiid questionable to play at Cleveland with ankle soreness, James Harden not on injury report
CLEVELAND — Joel Embiid is listed as questionable to play in the 76ers’ game at the Cavaliers on Sunday night because of left ankle soreness.
Before that, Embiid had played in 41 of 42 games while managing a number of injuries during an MVP-caliber season. During Saturday’s postgame news conference, he revealed a deep cut on his right shooting hand, which he said he has been dealing with for about two months because it keeps opening up while catching passes and dunking.
Perhaps another reason to consider resting Embiid: Cleveland’s starting big men, All-Star Jarrett Allen and Rookie of the Year contender Evan Mobley , are both out Sunday.
