Here is the full injury report for Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers as they take on the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Cup on Friday.

The Sixers released their injury report ahead of their second NBA Cup matchup against the Detroit Pistons. VJ Edgecombe’s name has popped up — he is listed as questionable with back spasms. He did take a couple of hard falls in his most recent game against the Boston Celtics, but this blog won’t speculate any further.

Miller surmised that the Sixers are caught between a rock and a hard place. As mentioned, Joel has already made it clear that he is not happy with the minutes he's playing, especially since he can't get into a clear rhythm being yanked in and out of the game.

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid wants to build a 2-man game with rookie guard VJ Edgecombe to diversify the offense.

Embiid didn't look like the same player through his first five appearances. Although it’s a small sample size, the 31-year-old had been focused on getting his shot rather than helping his teammates.

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid found a somewhat unexpected comparison for Trendon Watford after the forward posted a triple-double in Saturday's 130-120 win over the Toronto Raptors.

Tyrese Maxey scored 21 points and Kelly Oubre Jr. scored the go-ahead basket on a follow with 8.7 seconds left to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 102-100 win over the Boston Celtics.
