ANDRE DRUMMOND NEWS

Headed to bench Drummond will return to the bench for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.

Impact Joel Embiid (knee) is back and starting, so Drummond will shift back to a reserve role where his value will dip. As a member of the second unit this season, Drummond has registered averages of 5.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game.

Productive despite foul trouble Drummond posted 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 121-102 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Drummond played through his recent knee injury, tallying his second double-double in the past six games. He was limited to 17 minutes as a result of early foul trouble, although the fact that the game was a blowout likely had something to do with it as well. As long as he is relatively healthy, Drummond remains a must-roster player, at least until Joel Embiid (knee) is back playing regular basketball.

Goes through shootaround Drummond (knee) participated in Tuesday's morning shootaround, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Impact Drummond left Sunday's game against the Hawks early and did not return due to right knee soreness, but he's carrying a questionable tag on the official injury report. For what it's worth, Drummond was wearing a starter's practice jersey at the morning shootaround -- Joel Embiid (knee) has already been ruled out.

Questionable for Tuesday Drummond (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Drummond attempted to play through the knee issue during Sunday's loss to the Hawks, but he only managed to log six minutes before tapping out after halftime. The 76ers have a four-game week during Week 7, so it might make sense to give Drummond the night off. If he is forced to join Joel Embiid (knee) on the inactive list, Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow would see a boost.

Exits early Sunday Drummond left Sunday's game against the Hawks early and did not return due to right knee soreness, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact Drummond came into Sunday's game dealing with a right knee contusion, and head coach Nick Nurse said postgame that soreness reemerged in the knee, causing Drummond to be ruled out for the second half of the game. Drummond concludes the contest with two points (1-1 FG) and one rebound in five minutes. If he is forced to miss time, Adem Bona could see an increased role.

Available Sunday Drummond (knee) will be available off the bench in Sunday's game against the Hawks, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact The veteran center won't miss additional time after sustaining a right knee contusion in Friday's win over the Nets, though he'll slide to the bench with Joel Embiid (knee) back in action. In his last five outings off the bench, Drummond has averaged 6.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.2 blocks across 18.2 minutes per contest.

Iffy for Sunday Drummond (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Drummond sustained a right knee injury in Friday's win over the Nets, though an MRI revealed no structural damage, and he's now being listed as questionable due to a knee contusion. If the veteran big man is unable to play Sunday, Adem Bona will likely get the starting nod with Joel Embiid (knee) out.

No structural damage to knee An MRI revealed no structural damage to Drummond's right knee, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Drummond injured his right knee during the first half of the 76ers' 115-103 win over the Nets on Friday, and the veteran center was unable to return to the contest. The good news is that Drummond appears to have avoided a serious injury, though it remains to be seen whether he'll be available to play Sunday against the Hawks. Adem Bona would be poised for a larger role if Drummond were to miss time.

Won't return Friday Drummond will not return to Friday's game due to a right knee sprain, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

Impact Drummond came down awkwardly on his right knee after contesting a shot, and he went down right away. He was unable to put any weight on his right leg as he was helped off the court, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out for the remainder of the game. For now, Drummond should be considered questionable at best for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Exits game with right leg injury Drummond exited Friday's game with an apparent right leg injury.

Impact Drummond was in a great deal of pain as he was helped off the court, and he was unable to put any weight on his right leg, so he should be considered doubtful to return. Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow will see a boost if Drummond needs to miss some games moving forward.

Dominates glass in Sunday's loss Drummond closed with 14 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 24 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 38 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 loss to the Heat.

Impact The 24 boards were the most by any player in the NBA this season, topping the 22 that Detroit's Jalen Duren pulled down Nov. 5 against Utah. Drummond has started seven straight games while the Sixers wait for Joel Embiid (knee) to recover from his latest injury, recording double-doubles in six of them. Over that stretch, Drummond is averaging 12.0 points, 14.0 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, 0.9 steals and 0.9 threes in 33.1 minutes per game.

Drummond will continue to see increased usage until Embiid returns, but for now he is a must add.
