What happened
Joel Embiid was questionable until tipoff with right foot plantar fascia management, then scored 20 points in Philadelphia's 123-112 win over Toronto.
Early in the first quarter, Ja'Kobe Walter hit Embiid's right knee, trainers checked him, and he returned three minutes later.
LINEUP CONTEXT
If Embiid's knee issue lingers, Philadelphia may again need small-ball or emergency center minutes because Bona and Barlow were already out.
