The Philadelphia 76ers offer injury updates on Paul George, Andre Drummond, and others ahead of their 3-game road trip.
George, averaging his lowest points per game total (17.2) since 2014, said he was “bored” playing center to help fill the gap left by Joel Embiid’s latest injury woe.
Here is the full injury report for Paul George and the Philadelphia 76ers as they take on the Indiana Pacers on the road on Saturday.
Joel Embiid will not play in the 76ers' matchup vs. the Knicks. Tyrese Maxey and Paul George, however, could return from injury.
Joel Embiid (left foot sprain) and Paul George (left groin tightness) are both OUT for tomorrow’s game against the Wizards. Kyle Lowry (right hip soreness) is out as well.
George has been named to four All-Defense teams throughout his career as, primarily, the guy who locks up opposing wings. One can understand where he's coming from. Nurse and his 76ers teammates may wish he delivered it a little differently, though.
The Philadelphia 76ers played without their All-Star trio of Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey in a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night
Friday’s 123-115 loss to New Orleans was another example of the game of whack-a-mole that the Philadelphia 76ers are forced to play, nightly with the injury report and on the court with a roster
Embiid and Drummond will both miss their fifth consecutive game with a sprained left foot and sprained left toe, respectively.
The Philadelphia 76ers might end up in the Cooper Flagg race after all, but the 2025 NBA Draft is full of appealing fallback options, too.
