Drummond (toe) won't play Sunday against the Bucks.
Drummond returned from a six-game absence due to a sprained left toe in Saturday's 115-102 loss to the Pacers, starting at center while finishing with eight points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 26 minutes. Though he seemingly avoided any setbacks coming out of the contest, the 76ers will hold Drummond out for maintenance purposes in the second leg of this back-to-back. Guerschon Yabusele (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday, but he would likely start at center in place of Drummond if cleared to play. If Yabusele is out, however, rookie Adem Bona would likely be the next man up to start.

76ers' Andre Drummond: Underwhelms in starting role
Rotowire
Drummond (toe) tallied eight points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and one steal across 26 minutes Saturday in the 76ers' 115-102 loss to the Pacers.
Drummond made his return after missing the 76ers' previous six games due to a sprained left toe. Though he's typically held a minor role in the Philadelphia rotation when the team is at close to full strength, Drummond was thrust into the starting five and handled a relatively hefty workload while the 76ers were without Joel Embiid (knee) and Guerschon Yabusele (knee). While Embiid's return looks to be further out, Yabusele could be back in action for Sunday's game in Milwaukee, which could result in fewer minutes for Drummond regardless of whether he remains in the starting five or not.

Drummond will sit out for a fifth straight game Tuesday due to a left toe sprain, and his next chance to return arrives during the second leg of Philadelphia's back-to-back Wednesday against the Knicks.

76ers' Andre Drummond: Makes return from toe injury
Rotowire
Drummond (toe) finished with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes Wednesday in the 76ers' 113-107 loss to the Kings.
Drummond was back in action after he had missed the 76ers' previous three games due to a left toe sprain.

76ers' Andre Drummond: Returning against Kings
Rotowire
Drummond (toe) is available for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
After missing the past three games with a toe injury, Drummond will suit up for the shorthanded 76ers on Wednesday. Guerschon Yabusele will draw the starting nod against the Kings in Joel Embiid's (rest) absence, so Drummond's fantasy appeal remains limited despite the superstar big man's void.
