New Headline: Embiid's Injury Frustration Strikes 76ers' Dunk Showdown with Blazers Support
Here is the full injury report for Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers as they take on the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday.
The Philadelphia 76ers will play host to the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday night as they look to keep things moving forward on the second night of a back-to-back. The Sixers were able to escape with a win over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday and need to string some wins together as they move forward. As far as the injury report is concerned, the Sixers will, obviously, be without Paul George (league suspension), Joel Embiid (right oblique strain), Kelly Oubre Jr.
(left elbow sprain), and Tyrese Maxey (right finger tendon injury). Coach Nick Nurse gave an update on Embiid on Saturday before the matchup with the Nets while the Sixers will be without Oubre and Maxey for a few weeks as they recover from their injuries. George, meanwhile, has five games remaining on his suspension as he is set to return on March 25 against the Chicago Bulls.
Jabari Walker (illness) will miss his second straight game while Johni Broome (right knee surgery recovery) is also out. Andre Drummond (back spasms), Adem Bona (back injury management), and Dalen Terry (left shoulder impingement) are all questionable. Injury report for today vs.
Portland is lengthy. I had to screenshot it due to a lack of characters. #Sixers pic.
