76ers still unsure if Embiid can play in Game 1 v Boston

Coach Doc Rivers said Thursday that Embiid was at a doctor's exam while the team practiced at its New Jersey facility

The Philadelphia 76ers still aren’t saying if Joel Embiid will be able to return from a sprained right knee and play next week in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

The 76ers completed a sweep of the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday, providing a great opportunity for Embiid to rest up. Embiid, an NBA MVP finalist, missed Game 4 with the knee injury. He has yet to practice ahead of Monday’s Game 1 against the Boston Celtics.
