The Philadelphia 76ers have been ravaged by injuries this season. After a blazing start to the year, the hits keep on coming.
Joel Embiid is still without a timeline to return, as the reigning MVP center continues to rehab from the meniscus procedure Embiid underwent in February. But now they’ll have to take on another All-Star (and possible future All-NBA talent) Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks without Tyrese Maxey.
This will be the fourth straight game Maxey, a first-time All-Star, will be on the sidelines with a concussion. Maxey has yet to clear the NBA’s concussion protocol.
