Our View
Coach Nick Nurse indicated earlier Sunday that Embiid was expected to play against the Nets, barring any setbacks. The star big man was later ruled out, but it looks like Philly simply opted to be cautious. The former MVP is expected to be ready for a potential Play-In game or Round 1 matchup, depending on how the seeding ultimately works out.
