Joel Embiid will miss the entirety of the preseason as the Sixers manage his knee injury and Paul George will be re-evaluated in a week which would make Oct. 22 a target date for the next update for him.

The Philadelphia 76ers seem to have a plan in place to keep Joel Embiid and Paul George healthy, as they chase a Championship.

The hype train hasn’t exactly left the station for the 2024-25 Philadelphia 76ers. Sure, Paul George is here to form a Big Three with Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid, but George’s preseason injury scare and Embiid’s likely absence from back-to-back games did not exactly accelerate said hype train.
