Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid’s status for Game 1 of the team’s first-round playoff series against the Brooklyn Nets remains in limbo.

He was officially listed as “doubtful” for Saturday’s game withload management — left knee soreness.

“I have no idea,” Embiid told reporters when asked if he would be able to play against Brooklyn when the series begins Saturday at 2:30 p.m. ET on ESPN at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
