Embiid's availability has long been an issue for the franchise, though there's hope he could return as soon as Wednesday.

The Philadelphia 76ers have yet to see superstar big man Joel Embiid on the floor to begin the 2024-25 season. The big fella has been working his way back from a knee issue that has bothered him and sidelined him for two months in the 2023-24 season.

Joel Embiid and Paul George will each miss a fifth straight game with knee injuries when the Sixers host Memphis on Saturday.

After an investigation resulted in a $100,000 fine, Philadelphia coach Nick Nurse is still bypassing questions about the oft-injured star who has yet to play.

Here is the full injury report for Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers as they take on the Los Angeles Clippers on the road.

Joel Embiid is set to miss his fourth straight game to start the regular season. The Sixers say there isn’t a new injury or any setback. So, what the hell is going on?

The 30-year-old Embiid underwent left knee surgery in February. He returned for the end of the 2023-24 regular season and played in the Sixers’ first-round playoff loss to the Knicks and for Team USA at the Olympics, but he has not appeared in a game this season.

The Philadelphia 76ers are off to a tough start in the 2024-25 season as they sit at 1-5 following a loss to the Phoenix Suns on Monday. They have lost three in a row and are looking to get on track amid a slew of injuries and an off-the-court drama issue involving Joel Embiid.
