NBC SportsGuerschon Yabusele (right knee swelling) is out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

Yabusele is set to miss both ends of the 76ers' back-to-back Saturday and Sunday. With Joel Embiid (back) also out, the Sixers are going with Adem Bona in the starting lineup Sunday. Bona is certainly on the streaming radar given this opportunity.

NBC SportsAndre Drummond (left toe injury recovery) is out for Sunday's matchup with the 76ers, and Guerschon Yabusele (right knee swelling) is questionable.

Yabusele sat out Saturday, and Drummond got the start with Joel Embiid still on the shelf. It's possible the Sixers are alternating the two backup centers so that neither have to play both legs of the back-to-back set. If Yabusele is available, he'll likely draw the start, but if he's out, Philadelphia will have to go small at center. Second-round rookie Adem Bona finished with a career-high 12 points Saturday, and he could end up with the first unit.

NBC SportsAndre Drummond played 27 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Pacers, scoring eight points (4-of-8 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), three rebounds, and one steal.

With Joel Embiid and Guerschon Yabusele out due to injury, Drummond started in his first game back from a sprained toe that cost him six games. The veteran center didn't do much in his time on the court, with fantasy managers receiving minimal value in the one category Drummond has consistently provided value (rebounds). Rookie Adem Bona had a good night off the bench, finishing with 12 points, six rebounds, and one assist in 19 minutes. If Yabusele remains sidelined for Sunday's game against the Bucks, the 76ers will be left to rely again on Drummond and Bona.

NBC SportsPaul George (left groin tightness) and Guerschon Yabusele (right knee swelling) are out for Saturday's game against the Pacers.

After not participating in Friday's practice, George and Yabusele were initially questionable for Saturday's game. They'll both sit out the matchup with the Pacers, with the former's absence being more impactful. Kelly Oubre Jr. and Eric Gordon will receive bumps to their fantasy values with George out, while Yabusele's absence boosts Andre Drummond (probable).

NBC SportsAndre Drummond (left toe sprain) is available for Saturday's game against the Pacers.

Drummond is back after missing six games with a toe injury, and he'll be thrust into the starting lineup immediately. The 76ers are without Joel Embiid and Guerschon Yabusele, leaving Drummond and rookie Adem Bona as the only healthy big men on the roster.
