Philadelphia will be without its star center for injury management. Jabari Walker and Ariel Hukporti are also unavailable, leaving the team short on options at center.

The Philadelphia 76ers will face the Detroit Pistons without Joel Embiid. The star center has been ruled out of Sunday’s game for injury management.

Philadelphia will also be without Jabari Walker, who is dealing with a knee issue, while Ariel Hukporti is sidelined after suffering an Achilles tear.

The absences leave the 76ers short of options at center, with Adem Bona the only center remaining in the rotation. Philadelphia may have to rely on forwards in backup center minutes and use small-ball lineups. Another possible option is Tacko Fall, who is on a two-way contract with the team.
