Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid and guard Kelly Oubre Jr. missed shootaround on Tuesday morning, creating questions about their availability for Game 5 of their Eastern Conference first-round series against the host New York Knicks.

Embiid, who is questionable for the game on Tuesday night with left knee injury management, was absent from shootaround with a migraine.

Oubre is dealing with an illness. He was added to the injury report as probable to play for the Sixers, who trail 3-1 in the best-of-seven series.

Embiid, the reigning NBA MVP, has averaged 35.0 points, 9.0 rebounds and 5.5 assists in the first four games of the series.

Oubre is contributing 12.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists this series.
