Sixers Face Injury Woes Ahead of Bucks Showdown
20 Nov, 2025
Summary
- Joel Embiid is doubtful with knee injury management.
- Paul George is also doubtful after a recent season debut.
- The Bucks have won eight consecutive games against the Sixers.
The Philadelphia 76ers are preparing for a road game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, November 20, with a roster significantly impacted by injuries. Key player Joel Embiid is doubtful as he continues to manage a knee injury, having already missed nine games this season. His return is anticipated, but the team is proceeding cautiously with his recovery.
Further complicating the lineup, Paul George is also listed as doubtful. He recently made his season debut but missed the subsequent game. The Sixers will also be without Kelly Oubre Jr. for at least two weeks due to a sprained LCL in his left knee. Adem Bona, however, is nearing a return from an ankle sprain.
The game is set to take place at Fiserv Forum, with tipoff scheduled for 8 p.m. ET. The Milwaukee Bucks, currently 8-7, will look to extend their dominant streak against the 76ers, having won the last eight matchups between the two teams.
