Embiid, leaves game, won’t return vs. Pacers; McCain takes bad fall but checks back in

Paul Hudrick has been covering the Sixers as a writer, reporter, podcaster, on-camera personality and analyst since 2016. He is the Editor-in-Chief at Liberty Ballers.

The Sixers’ Big 3 made it’s home debut Friday. Just like the first time they all finally played together, it was short lived.

Joel Embiid was forced to leave the game against the Pacers after being struck in the face by the Indiana Pacers’ Benedict Mathurin while fighting for a rebound. The Sixers ruled him out with impact to the right side of his face. He will undergo further testing.
