Joel Embiid returned to Philadelphia 76ers practise in a limited capacity on Monday, January 27 as the 30-year-old center is confirmed to miss the upcoming two fixtures with the Lo

Even with star center Karl-Anthony Towns sidelined, the New York Knicks handled business on the road, dropping the Philadelphia 76ers in overtime 125-119

The 76ers squared off with the Knicks in Philadelphia in a matchup without Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns.

Nick Nurse didn’t spend much time trying to reconcile a timeline of Joel Embiid’s foot injury that doesn’t appear to make much sense.

Jalen Brunson scored 16 of his 38 points in the fourth quarter and overtime as the New York Knicks beat the Philadelphia 76ers.

Meanwhile, Andre Drummond (left toe sprain), Caleb Martin (right groin soreness), Kyle Lowry (right hip sprain), KJ Martin (left foot stress reaction) and Jared McCain (left knee surgery) will remain sidelined. McCain will miss the remainder of the season.

Joel Embiid is habitually injured, habitually unavailable and habitually out of shape Joel Embiid. And the Knicks tried to trade for him.

On Wednesday evening, the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers will face off at the Wells Fargo Center. For the game, both teams have announced their injury

In the second half, the Sixers showed signs of the team they were supposed to be without Joel Embiid. But their dreadful first half sunk them to 15-24.
