Without Embiid, the Sixers will turn to Andre Drummond and Adem Bona at center against the 23-16 Raptors, who sat a half-game ahead of the Sixers (21-15) in fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings entering Sunday. Dominick Barlow and Jabari Walker are also small-ball options at that position.

The Philadelphia 76ers have cleared Joel Embiid to play against the Chicago Bulls, which signals an important milestone.

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid reacts to being called for a goaltend as well as the team's overall play in the loss to the Denver Nuggets.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid got his first dunk of the season on Saturday evening to end his team's 130-119 road win over the New York Knicks.

The change comes right near tip-off, so Kelly Oubre will step into the 76ers' starting lineup in George's absence.
