Joel Embiid will not play in the 76ers' matchup vs. the Knicks. Tyrese Maxey and Paul George, however, could return from injury.

Paul George's first season with the Philadelphia 76ers has been snakebitten, to say the least. Coming over from the Los Angeles Clippers as a free agent over the summer PG-13 has missed 11 games already and struggled to adjust to his new environment when on the court,

Because of injuries to both players, the two All-Stars have played together in only 12 of the Sixers’ 33 games. On Saturday, Embiid finished with game highs of 28 points and 12 rebounds in just three quarters of action. George, who also sat out the fourth quarter, added 17 points, six assists, and two steals.
