Joel Embiid will be available to play Sunday night vs. the Bulls after missing the second half of Sunday's game against the Grizzlies because of neck stiffness, per NBC Sports Philadelphia's Serena Winters.
For Chicago, Zach LaVine is questionable with neck spasms. The Bulls have several of their key players out with injuries, including Kris Dunn, Wendell Carter Jr. and Lauri Markannen.
Al Horford (left Achilles soreness) is questionable for the Sixers.

Also of note is that the Sixers’ two new acquisitions, Alec Burks and Glenn Robinson III, are still listed as out. According to Winters, they will undergo physicals Sunday morning to complete the trade process and their status could be upgraded before the game.
Kyle O’Quinn, who reportedly wants to be waived, will be available after missing the last two games because of personal reasons, a source told Winters.
Norvel Pelle, signed to an NBA deal Friday, is now clearly the team’s third center, a job O’Quinn originally held. The 27-year-old, who said before the Sixers’ win over the Grizzlies that having his contract converted was both a “sigh of a relief” and a “dream come true,” might take on an important role if Embiid and/or Horford are out.
