Embiid Doubtful, George Out for 76ers vs. Raptors Clash
19 Nov
Summary
- Joel Embiid is doubtful to play against the Raptors due to knee management.
- Paul George will not play against Toronto managing his left knee.
- Several other 76ers players are also sidelined with various injuries.
The Philadelphia 76ers are facing significant injury concerns heading into their upcoming game against the Toronto Raptors. Joel Embiid, the team's former MVP, has been sidelined for four games and is currently listed as doubtful due to right knee injury management. His return remains uncertain unless his status is upgraded closer to game time.
Adding to the team's challenges, Paul George will not play. While he recently made his season debut after recovering from left knee surgery, he has been ruled out for Wednesday's game, also for injury management. This decision may be strategic, with the team playing on the front end of a back-to-back set, potentially targeting him for Thursday's game.
Beyond their star duo, the 76ers have other players on the injury report. Adem Bona is out for at least two more games with a right ankle sprain, and Kelly Oubre Jr. is sidelined with a left knee sprain, with no current update on his recovery. Jared McCain, however, is listed as available despite recovering from right thumb surgery.
