That's why Embiid won't visit with Milwaukee or Philadelphia, which have the next two picks, until Cleveland has a chance to review his case for No. 1.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Embiid and fellow top prospect Jabari Parker are represented by the Wasserman Group, which\u00A0believes the players will be taken with the first two picks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MANNIX: Andrew Wiggins goes No. 1 to Cavaliers in NBA Mock Draft&lt;/strong&gt;\nThe center sat out the Big 12 and NCAA tournaments with a back injury, and skipped the NBA draft combine in Chicago earlier this month.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
