Bamba appears unlikely to suit up this preseason while dealing with a knee injury. While Bamba is hoping to be available once the regular season rolls around, Kai Jones will serve as the team's backup center in his absence.

Bamba (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's preseason game against the Warriors, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Bamba had been limited in training camp earlier this week, so his absence shouldn't be surprising, especially since the Clippers are being extremely cautious with the recovery process of their players in the early stages of the preseason. Bamba's next chance to feature will come against the Nets on Tuesday in another preseason contest.

Clippers' Mo Bamba: Remains limited Wednesday
Bamba (knee) did not partake in 5-on-5 scrimmages Wednesday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Bamba was joined by Kawhi Leonard (knee) and rookie Trentyn Flowers (wrist) as those being held out of team scrimmages Wednesday.

Clippers' Mo Bamba: Inks deal with Clippers
Bamba agreed to a one-year deal with the Clippers on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

However, Bamba did shoot a career-high 39.1 percent from deep in a limited number of attempts at 1.1 per game.

Joel Embiid (knee/rest) is sitting out the regular-season finale, so Bamba will slide into the startling lineup. As a starter this season (16 games), Bamba has averaged 6.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 19.3 minutes per game.

76ers' Mo Bamba: Grabs seven boards in return
Bamba (illness) scored three points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and added seven rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 15 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime victory over the Spurs.
Bamba was back in action for Philadelphia after missing the previous three games with an illness. His return coincided with Joel Embiid being held out of Sunday's contest, after Embiid had played in each of the previous three games following a 29-game absence while he recovered from meniscus surgery. With Embiid expected back for the 76ers' next game Tuesday versus the Pistons and Paul Reed likely to serve as his top backup, Bamba could soon find himself outside of the team's rotation.

Joel Embiid (knee) made his return following a lengthy absence while Bamba was sick, but the reigning MVP has been ruled out for Sunday's contest, which is the second night of a back-to-back set, for rest purposes. Bamba should garner a solid role versus San Antonio, though Paul Reed is expected to start at center in Embiid's stead.
