Injuries Plague 76ers-Pacers Clash: Haliburton & Embiid Out
15 Nov
Summary
- Tyrese Haliburton is out with a strained hamstring for the Pacers.
- Joel Embiid will also miss the 76ers' matchup against the Pacers.
- This is the second meeting between the Sixers and Pacers this season.
The Philadelphia 76ers are set to host the Indiana Pacers on Sunday, November 15, in a game significantly impacted by player absences. Pacers' star point guard Tyrese Haliburton will miss the matchup, continuing his recovery from a strained hamstring injury sustained on October 26 against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Haliburton's absence is expected to extend for close to another two weeks, according to a recent re-evaluation. This marks the second game this season between the Sixers and Pacers where Haliburton has been unavailable. In their prior meeting on October 28, the 76ers secured a 114-109 victory over the shorthanded Pacers.
Compounding the injury concerns, the Philadelphia 76ers will also be without their own star, Joel Embiid, for Sunday's game. The absence of both Haliburton and Embiid will be a major storyline for this 1 PM ET tip-off.
