Philadelphia 76ers vs New York Knicks injury report
The 76ers have listed four players on their injury report: PG Tyrese Maxey (concussion), PF Robert Covington (knee), SG De'Anthony Melton (back) and C Joel Embiid (knee) are out.
What happened to Joel Embiid?
Earlier this week, reports emerged that the Philadelphia 76ers center has commenced on-court workouts and is operating at full capacity in the weight room.
However, it's still anticipated that last season's MVP will likely not make a return until early April. On his return, it's expected that he will face restrictions in his initial few games back on the court.
The injury took place with just over four minutes remaining on Jan. 30. Joel Embiid was attempting to post up Draymond Green when Jonathan Kuminga came in for a double team, knocking the ball loose.
In the scramble for the ball, both Embiid and Kuminga ended up on the floor. During the tussle, Kuminga accidentally landed on Embiid's knee.
