Fall (quadriceps) is out for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Fall still isn't ready for his 76ers debut due to a quadriceps strain. Once cleared to make his season debut, the two-way player could see most of his action come with the G League's Delaware Blue Coats.

Diop (knee) is out for Saturday's game against the Nets.

Diop will miss a second consecutive game while managing a left knee injury. The big man isn't expected to have a big role for the Cavaliers once he's cleared to play, though. His next chance to suit up will come against the Timberwolves on Monday.

Bilodeau (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game in Cleveland.

This will be Bilodeau's second straight game on the sidelines. His next chance to play will come Sunday against the Pacers.

Wade is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks due to a left ankle sprain.

Wade is in jeopardy of missing a third straight game to begin the regular season. If the veteran forward is unable to suit up, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Jabari Walker would be candidates to see a bump in minutes.

Embiid (rest) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

The star big man told reporters following Thursday's comeback win over the Cavaliers that he'd play only one half of this back-to-back set, so he's in line to sit out Sunday's showdown with the Pistons as opposed to Saturday. With LeBron James (back) a candidate to miss Saturday's contest, Embiid could have more usage on his plate.

James (back) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

The 76ers are considering giving James the night off Saturday for the first leg of a back-to-back set. If James sits out, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope stands out as the most likely candidate to step into the starting lineup.

Kennard (knee) practiced Friday, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Kennard is trending positively ahead of Saturday's game against the Warriors. The veteran sharpshooter can be tentatively deemed questionable before the Suns release an official injury report later Friday.

Ighodaro has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors due to an oblique strain, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Ighodaro exited Wednesday's season-opening loss to Portland due to a hip injury and has since been diagnosed with an oblique strain. With the big man sidelined, Khaman Maluach, Koa Peat, Rasheer Fleming and Duop Reath are all candidates for increased playing time.

LaRavia (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Clippers, Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com reports.

LaRavia will miss Friday's contest with a right ankle sprain he sustained in Wednesday's season-opening win over the Warriors. With the 24-year-old forward sidelined, Quentin Grimes, Matisse Thybulle and Sandro Mamukelashvili could all see a bump in minutes. LaRavia's next chance to play will come Sunday at Utah.

Bassey (knee) is out for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies.

The big man is nursing right patellar tendinopathy and can be considered day-to-day. Even with Kristaps Porzingis out of action, Bassey is unlikely to play a significant role once healthy.
