Philadelphia 76ers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hand) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Knicks. Head coach Nick Nurse is "hopeful" the 24-year-old will play on Wednesday, and he'll work out ahead of the contest to determine if he can go. But Joel Embiid (foot) is already ruled out, and Paul George (ankle) is questionable, so the team could be short-handed once again. If Maxey doesn't suit up, Reggie Jackson could draw another start. However, Jeff Dowtin Jr. should be the streaming option of choice for fantasy managers, especially after he had 18 points, five boards, two steals, and one block on Tuesday versus OKC.

Philadelphia 76ers forwardPaul George(ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the New York Knicks. George was initially regarded as probable for Tuesday's contest against the Thunder. However, he was eventually a late scratch before tip-off. With Tyrese Maxey(hand) also listed as questionable and Joel Embiid(foot) set to be sidelined again, George would see plenty of action if he can suit up on Wednesday.

Philadelphia 76ers centerJoel Embiid(foot) won't suit up against the Knicks on Wednesday. Embiid will be out of action for the sixth consecutive contest. The 76ers previously announced that the big man remains day-to-day. While Embiid is out, Guerschon Yabusele will continue to take on extra minutes on the floor. Yasbusele posted 17 points, seven rebounds, and four assists across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 118-102 loss to the Thunder.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) didn't play in Tuesday's loss to OKC. However, it appears he has a chance of returning for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, with head coach Nick Nurse labeling the multi-time All-Star as "day-to-day." Embiid, who hasn't been as productive this season, has appeared in only 13 of Philly's 38 games during the 2024-25 campaign, most recently missing five games because of a foot sprain. With Andre Drummond (toe) uncertain for Wednesday's meeting with New York, Guerschon Yabusele, amassing 17 points, seven rebounds, and four assists on Tuesday night, could find himself back in the middle if Embiid remains sidelined.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Oklahoma City. The 76ers will be down to bare bones for the clash, with Kelly Oubre Jr. being the only available regular starter. George was initially regarded as probable, so he doesn't appear to be dealing with a serious injury. He might hop back into the lineup when Philadelphia caps off a back-to-back by hosting the Knicks on Wednesday. On Tuesday, Oubre Jr. will lead the team alongside Eric Gordon and Reggie Jackson. Ricky Council IV and Guerschon Yabusele will join them in the starting lineup.
