What happened

Philadelphia hosts Toronto on Thursday with Joel Embiid listed questionable, while Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow remain out and Ariel Hukporti is sidelined for the season.

The Raptors arrive on the second night of a back-to-back after losing to Boston, and Kawhi Leonard remains out while Scottie Barnes has missed since Nov. 4.

LINEUP CONTEXT

If Embiid sits, Philadelphia’s frontcourt depth becomes a rotation concern; Toronto’s short-rest trip could further favor the Sixers’ regulars.
