Zubac (ankle) will remain on the inactive list for Sunday's game against the Nets.

This will be Zubac's fourth consecutive game on the sidelines, which should result in another start for Jay Huff and extended minutes for Larry Nance. Zubac's next chance to play will come Monday against the Hawks.

Robinson (rest) is questionable for Sunday's game in Orlando, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

Sunday's game will be the first of a back-to-back set, so Robinson might get scheduled for a maintenance day. If he's forced to the sidelines, Neemias Queta would likely start, and Luka Garza could see a bump in minutes.

Gobert (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game at San Antonio.

Gobert is a late addition to the injury report, so his status will be worth monitoring ahead of Saturday's 8:00 p.m. ET tipoff. Joan Beringer would likely be the top candidate to enter the Timberwolves' starting lineup if Gobert is not cleared to play in the second leg of the team's back-to-back set.

Williams (knee) is available for Saturday's game in Utah.

Williams is back after a one-game layoff, and he should see his usual minutes with the second unit. On the season, Williams is averaging 9.7 points, 8.7 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game.

Sengun (back) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Saturday's meeting with the Thunder.

Sengun is set to return after a two-game stint on the sidelines, likely prompting Clint Capela to head back to the second unit. Sengun has gotten off to a hot start this season, averaging 24.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 1.5 triples and 1.8 steals per game.

Fall (quad) is questionable to face the Hornets on Saturday.

Fall has yet to debut for the 76ers this season, but he might be able to get out there Saturday. With Joel Embiid (foot) out, Fall could be in the rotation if cleared to play.

Embiid (foot) is out for Saturday's game in Charlotte.

It's the second night of a back-to-back set, so Embiid will get hit with a maintenance day. Adem Bona will have the opportunity to start Saturday with Embiid inactive.

Wagner finished with 16 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal over 23 minutes in Friday's 110-94 loss to the Pistons.

Wagner had another productive showing Friday, ending the night with his third consecutive double-digit scoring performance of the new year. The 2018 No. 25 overall pick was a sporadic contributor in his final season with the Magic in 2025-26. However, Wagner has carved out a meaningful role off the bench for the Nets and is now averaging 11.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists while shooting 58.3 percent from deep over 17.8 minutes in his first five regular-season appearances of the 2026-27 campaign.

Embiid closed Friday's 98-93 victory over the Knicks with 10 points (3-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes.

Embiid didn't have a great shooting night Friday, but he did fill up the box score and finished second on the 76ers in assists behind LeBron James (eight). Through five regular-season games, Embiid is averaging 19.2 points, 9.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.0 blocks over what is currently a career-high 35.2 minutes per contest. It wouldn't be surprising to see the veteran center sit for the second leg of the Sixers' back-to-back set Saturday against the Hornets.

Adebayo recorded 27 points (11-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 145-125 win over Indiana.

The 27 points were a season high for Adebayo, and for the second straight game he fell one board shy of his first double-double of 2026-27. The veteran center is beginning to find a groove alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo, hitting for at least 20 points in three of the last four games while averaging 19.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 0.8 blocks while shooting 50.9 percent from the floor.
