Embiid sat out the entire pre-season due to a sore left knee and is currently on an individualised rehab plan.

The 2022-23 NBA MVP will also be sidelined for Friday바카라™s game at the Toronto Raptors before being re-evaluated. Philadelphia visits the Indiana Pacers on Sunday.

George is also uncertain to play this week after sustaining a left knee bone bruise during the preseason.

The 76ers added George in the summer to join fellow All-Stars Embiid and Tyrese Maxey on the roster.

George, a nine-time All-Star, will also be re-evaluated later this week.
