Earlier this month, the Los Angeles Clippers had a chance to go head-to-head with their old friend, Paul George. When the Clippers and the Philadelphia 76ers meet on Sunday, George will not be a part of the action.

All-Stars Paul George and Joel Embiid both missed Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers with knee injuries.

As the Sixers now move forward, coach Nick Nurse gave the latest on both George and Embiid before the contest with the Clippers. "I think they’re both progressing OK," Nurse said. "Paul was on the court and doing some work. Just talked to Joel a few hours ago earlier today. He says he’s feeling a little better. Swelling’s getting better."

Paul George is not happy with Los Angeles Clippers fans. During the latest episode of his podcast on Wednesday, the Philadelphia 76ers forward lashed out at the Clippers' faithful for how they treated him when he returned to face his old team.

Philadelphia 76ers stars Joel Embiid and Paul George will each miss a third straight game with left knee injuries on Wednesday night against Houston.
