After a tough loss against the revamped New York Knicks in Joel Embiid’s season debut Tuesday, the Sixers will turn around and play the undefeated Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday.
Man, who did the Sixers piss off at the league office?
Oh, right. Everyone.
If you’re looking for a positive, head coach Nick Nurse did not rule out the possibility of Embiid and/or Paul George suiting up against the Cavs. Nurse said both players will be evaluated in the morning to see how they feel.
George, who had his best game as a Sixer Tuesday with a game-high 29 points, is still on a minutes restriction of sorts.
