Clippers’ Kawhi Leonard led the charge in 2018 when he inked his deal, becoming the brand’s first big-name signee and releasing four signature models since.</p><p>While Maxey doesn’t have his own signature silhouette just yet, he’s been favoring the Hesi Low series over the last season. In addition to his own performance ensemble, the colorway will make a lifestyle jump to the 1906R as well.</p><h2>Tyrese Maxey x New Balance Hesi Low v2 / New Balance 1906R</h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">FIRST LOOK: Sixers star <a href="https://twitter.com/TyreseMaxey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@TyreseMaxey</a> is getting his own New Balance Pack 🔔</p><p>🗓️ July 31st<br>📝 U1906RTM (1906); BBHSLMM2 (Hesi Low V2)<br>💵 $160 (1906); $120 (Hesi Low V2) <a href="https://t.co/ScyhL1OPwm">pic.twitter.com/ScyhL1OPwm</a></p><p>— Sole Retriever (@SoleRetriever) <a href="https://twitter.com/SoleRetriever/status/1942279465205391394?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 7, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://instagram.com/embed.js"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">BREAKING; Tyrese Maxey is getting his own New Balance Pack, releasing on July 31st.</p><p>The 1906s (the left pic) will retail for $160.

The shoes are marketed for speed and explosiveness, much like Maxey’s skills as a player. The shoes are made from synthetic uppers and feature a TPU heel plate for support. The iridescent New Balance logo gives this clean white colorway an extra pop to accent the complimentary colors.</p></figure><p>The 1906R is more of a utility lifestyle sneaker, suitable for walking, hiking, and the outdoors. Based in NB’s treaded outsoles, the colorway is subtly placed over the white underlaying material, accented by yellow contrast stitching along the TPU panels. The shoes feature light blue hues on the lace stays and “N” logo, finishing another very clean look for this shoe.</p><p>The two-shoe pack is set to release July 31, 2025 with the Hesi Low v2 coming in at $120 and the 1906R at $160.

Though he ultimately went undrafted, he landed in Portland for two years as a reserve forward before taking his talents to Brooklyn after being waived in the summer of 2023, where he played for the last two seasons.</p><p>Free to sign wherever he wanted, Charania noted he chose Philadelphia because of the role they had to offer, even if his deal is seemingly worth at or just above the minimum for a player with his years of service.</p><p>What does this mean for the potential return of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/76ers-news-guerschon-yabuseles-excited-approach-to-upcoming-free-agency">everyone’s favorite French power forward, Guerschon Yabusele</a>? Well, that depends on how the 76ers signed the former Net, as if he’s on a minimum deal, which means basically nothing, but if Daryl Morey dug into the $5.7 million in MLE money he could spend, it could potentially spell the end of the “Dancing Bear’s” run in South Philadelphia.</p><p>Still, whether Watford was signed to replace Yabusele or to play alongside him, his addition to a 76ers team that has been in desperate need of additional bodies at the power forward spot is important nonetheless, as he brings size and versatility to a team that has lacked both.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They can take a talented prospect or <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/nba-rumors-76ers-engage-spurs-trade-no-2-pick">trade the No. 3 pick</a>. The trade option is on the table because the 76ers still have Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey. That trio only played 15 games together last season, but it seems they are giving this experiment one more season.</p><p>According to Marc Stein and Jake Fischer at <i>The Stein Line</i>, the 76ers are content with bringing back their big three despite only appearing in 15 games together and having a 7-8 record. <a href="https://marcstein.substack.com/p/the-latest-nba-draft-intel-kevin?utm_source=post-email-title&amp;publication_id=392205&amp;post_id=166283635&amp;utm_campaign=email-post-title&amp;isFreemail=false&amp;r=39f60&amp;triedRedirect=true&amp;utm_medium=email" rel="noopener">They want to give this group one more shot together</a> to compete for an NBA championship and give the talent more time to gel because the sample size was so small.</p><p>The two insiders elaborated more on what Philadelphia plans to do: “By simply staying at No. 3, Philadelphia would introduce an $11.1 million salary onto its books for 2025-26. So the Sixers expect to operate near (or maybe even above) the second apron for this upcoming campaign, sources say, as they prepare to give Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey another shot to try to contend for a championship after they managed to appear in just 15 games (7-8) together this season.”</p><p>The big three of Embiid, George, and Maxey dealt with numerous injuries last season, and all three did not finish the season. It was not impressive, but with all three back next season, they think they can make it work after more time together and contend for a championship.</p><p>Philadelphia’s desire to remain in the top three is where the draft could get interesting, because Rutgers forward Ace Bailey <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/sources-ace-bailey-calls-off-76ers-meeting-workout-before-nba-draft">abruptly canceled his meeting and workout with the team</a>. If Bailey is no longer an option, the 76ers have a few options, but Baylor guard V.J.

The issue for Philadelphia this past season, though, was the unavailability of its ‘big 3.’</p><p>Maxey played a career-low 52 games, and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-paul-george-drops-scrambling-admission-joel-embiids-unavailability">Embiid and George were limited even more than him</a>. Embiid, who won the 2023 NBA MVP but has struggled to consistently stay healthy, played just 19 games before being shut down for the season at the end of February due to lingering problems with his left knee. Last month, Embiid had arthroscopic surgery on the knee, which he also had surgery for a year earlier.</p><p>George, the oldest of the bunch at 35 years old, played 41 games in his first season with the 76ers. The nine-time All-Star’s debut with the team was delayed until the sixth game following a hyperextended knee in the preseason, and he subsequently dealt with numerous injuries until, similarly to Embiid, being ruled out for the rest of the season in mid-March.</p><p>One of the few bright spots coming out of the 76ers’ poor season is that it landed them a favorable draft pick; Philadelphia avoided having to give its pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-daryl-morey-seems-end-speculation-plan-no-3-pick">earned the No. 3 overall pick</a> in the NBA Draft lottery.</p><p>If the 76ers’ core can stay healthy, they will likely be among the top contenders in the Eastern Conference next season, particularly after Achilles injuries to the Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum and the Milwaukee Bucks’ Damian Lillard.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After missing the playoffs, the 76ers can at least look forward to adding a highly-touted prospect to their strong core, helping them redeem themselves next season provided, of course, that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-paul-george-drops-scrambling-admission-joel-embiids-unavailability">Joel Embiid stays healthy.</a></p><p>Nevertheless, with the title picture being as wide open as it is, Tyrese Maxey couldn’t help but feel some sort of FOMO with the 76ers sitting at home. Maxey, however, vowed that he’ll <a href="https://x.com/TyreseMaxey/status/1922496661449846798" rel="noopener">do his best</a> to get Philly back to the playoffs where they belong (they made it every single year from 2018 to 2024).</p><p>“Yall deserve to be in the playoffs and we gotta work to get back there for yall!! 💯💯,” Maxey wrote on his official account on X (formerly Twitter).</p><p>The 76ers’ contending hopes will all hinge on Embiid and his health; Embiid dealt with a ton of knee problems this past season which then forced him into a early hiatus. Getting him back to MVP form will be necessary for Philly to make good on the contending promise that their roster possessed in the aftermath of their blockbuster signing of Paul George last summer.</p><p>Getting the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/philadelphia-76ers-3-best-options-no-3-pick-2025-nba-draft">third overall pick of this year’s draft</a> will allow them to build a sustainably good supporting cast around Embiid, Maxey, and George; Jared McCain should be back after a torn meniscus ended his rookie season early, while Quentin Grimes should be brought back from restricted free agency after he scorched the nets after arriving in Philly after the trade deadline.</p><h2><b>76ers to address their power forward problem?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Philadelphia-76ers-center-Joel-Embiid-and-forward-Paul-George.jpg"><figcaption>Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The 76ers are certainly stacked at the guard positions; Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain, and Quentin Grimes have those positions covered. Paul George should be very motivated to prove that he’s not yet washed up after a rough first year in Philly. But at this point, George may no longer have the capacity to play power forward for extended stretches.</p><p>Guerschon Yabusele was solid in his return to the NBA, but he’s an unrestricted free agent, free to sign with any other team. There remains a glaring hole for the team at the four, which is something they’ll have to address this offseason.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The health of their three stars — Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey — was also an issue. PG’s first campaign with the team also couldn’t have gone any worse.</p><p>But George, Embiid, and Maxey are determined to improve for 2024-25.

So we’ve already had those conversations about connecting once the season’s over.

Regardless, he is focused on getting better.</p><p>Maxey echoed PG’s sentiment about strengthening their relationship, both on and off the court:</p><p>“I said this at the beginning of the year, like at media day,” he said. “I said, ‘Listen, right now, we’re just names on a paper.’ And that’s a fact. I mean, we’ve got to see how it gets put together, how it doesn’t get put together. Who works with who? Who doesn’t work with who?”</p><p>In fairness, the Big 3 only played 15 games together, but it wasn’t pretty. They had a 7-8 record during that span. Being on the court at the same time will help them figure out the best way to succeed alongside one another, but there’s no time to waste.</p><p>The 76ers want to win now, and it depends on their stars.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He was insistent that the big man was dedicated to the team and said that he’s kept in touch with him to <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1893511745823518744" rel="noopener">make sure his spirits stay as high as they can</a>.</p><p>“It sucked. It really did suck, man, because at the end of the day, Joel is somebody who really wants to be out there,” Maxey said ahead of the 76ers’ season finale. “To see him suffer, to see him like go out there and actually try and he just couldn’t be himself, you could tell. You give him the ball sometimes and me being here the longest, I’ve seen him do so many spectacular things. I gave him the ball a couple of times in moments where I think that he would do something and I guess he just couldn’t. He was limited.”</p><h2><b>76ers appreciate, express faith in Joel Embiid following lost season</b></h2><p>Embiid may struggle to stay healthy but his teammates believe in him and appreciate his presence around the team.</p><p>Jared McCain said that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-jared-mccain-opens-up-on-tight-bond-with-joel-embiid-amid-injury-recoveries">Embiid was a great teammate</a> and someone who’s eager to get back out on the court. Kelly Oubre Jr. knows how resilient he is. “I pray that he takes the proper steps to get back to being himself,” he said. “But yeah, man, he fights lions and tigers and bears. He can conquer whatever he’s going through right now.”</p><p>The 76ers are very likely not winning a championship with Embiid leading the way at this point. Even if he returns to his MVP level, which seems extremely unlikely, the roster isn’t as formidable as others. At this point, Embiid even maintaining an All-Star level would be a great development. He’s worked tirelessly through multiple injuries and his teammates are eager to see him on the floor again.</p><p>“Hopefully that surgery went well and all that and he gets back to Joel Embiid that we know and love and that, honestly, I hope it for him because it’ll make him feel a lot better,” Maxey continued. “All in all, he has been great this year as far as being a teammate, being somebody who comes and just supports us.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Tyrese Maxey tried to look at the bright side of a mostly tumultuous season.</p><p>“This is gonna sound bad,” the star guard said, “but the one positive that I do take away is the only way we can go from here is up. It gives us something to build to. Everybody in this room, no matter if they come back here, if you’re not here, if you are here next year, you should have a different type of edge about yourself. You should go into the summer with a lot to work on and a lot to prove, myself included.”</p><p>The Sixers weren’t even close to finishing with a winning percentage of 33 after seven years of finishing with no worse than 57 percent. Injuries put them in a bad position they were unable to dig their way out of. Before they get back to the drawing board, they have to reset for a little bit.</p><p>“I think we all need a mental break,” he said. “We need a mental break, mental reset, figure out how this franchise moves forward from this. Again, I mean, the best thing I could possibly say is the best thing we could do is go up. We can’t go any further than this.”</p><h2><b>Tyrese Maxey eager to help 76ers bounce back from lost season</b></h2><p>Maxey had the unenviable task of leading the 76ers while his veteran co-stars were hurt, scoring a lot individually but failing to keep the team afloat. Seeing Joel Embiid fight though knee problems and <a href="https://x.com/PHLY_Sixers/status/1911483432267317693" rel="noopener">only play in 19 games “sucked.”</a> Paul George had better injury luck but was still far from optimal. Getting healthy is the first order of business for making next season successful.</p><p>“I think we’ve seen where our peaks can be in this year,” Maxey said. “It wasn’t a lot of them but there were some stretches where we all played and we looked really good. We found the right rotations, we knew who to get the ball to, who we need to get the ball to ’em, everybody got shots, everybody looked good.</p><p>“The sky’s the limit. That’s the thing that I can say. But the work has to be put in from day one, not from in the middle of the season.”</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/76ers-news-jared-mccain-delivers-five-word-declaration-amid-rookie-of-the-year-bid" rel="noopener">emergence of Jared McCain as a potential future star</a>, the mini-breakout of Quentin Grimes and the promising play of rookies Justin Edwards and Adem Bona give the 76ers some glimmers of hope for the future. But it’s going to take more than that for the Sixers to be the title contender they hoped to be. Maxey will undoubtedly be at the forefront of efforts to make next season much, much better.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Because of the reinjury and related pain and swelling, he will be unable to play for the rest of the regular season. He is expected to make a full recovery.”</p><p>Prior to the 76ers’ matchup against the Washington Wizards, Nick Nurse said that Maxey’s setback occurred the weekend before the Sixers lost to the New York Knicks on April 1.

Charania notes that Maxey “<a href="https://x.com/ShamsCharania/status/1907820862712983593" rel="noopener">has attempted to rehab the finger</a>, but still is dealing with discomfort and needs treatment.”</p><p>Nick Nurse said that Maxey had workouts planned after going through a practice and <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1907195768739369118" rel="noopener">having issues with his injury afterward</a>. With six games left and out of contention for the postseason, the 76ers are opting to let Maxey recover off the court and prevent further risk of another on-court injury.</p><h2><b>Tyrese Maxey expected to miss rest of 2024-25 season</b></h2><p>In 52 games this season, Maxey averaged 26.3 points, 6.1 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game. His averages for points and steals are career-high marks but his field-goal percentage of 43.7 is a career-worst mark and his three-point percentage of 33.7 is his second-worst.</p><p>Forced to play without either of his co-stars for much of the season and playing mostly alongside the one he hadn’t played with before, Maxey put up big box-score numbers but struggled to score efficiently. His improvements, namely on defense, weren’t enough to keep the Sixers from crumbling amid injuries to the other stars in their Big 3.</p><p>Joel Embiid and Paul George have already been ruled out for the rest of the season, with <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-joel-embiid-hit-with-worrisome-second-knee-surgery-update">Embiid heading for knee surgery soon</a>. Numerous other Sixers are dealing with injuries that have sidelined them for a while, forcing the team to use hardship exceptions to sign players to 10-day deals.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Injuries have completely derailed an already poor season, making their final 10 regular-season games more about staying healthy than earning wins.</p><p>Ahead of their matchup with the Washington Wizards on Wednesday, the 76ers <a href="https://x.com/MikeAScotto/status/1904967648401568181" rel="noopener">signed Phillip Wheeler away from the G League’s Maine Celtics</a> in their latest 10-day signing.</p><p>Nick Nurse, who has had to coach a ragtag bunch over the past month and change, offered injury updates for the regulars who, at this point in the season, have less to play for than the fringe NBAers trying to prove their worth.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/nba-rumors-joel-embiid-bypassed-daryl-morey-discuss-knee-76ers-ownership">Joel Embiid remains out for the rest of the season</a> but the decision on his path to recovery from a nagging left knee issue hangs in the balance. That decision should be coming “soon-ish,” according to Nurse.</p><p>“I don’t want to speak definitively. I think he’s done seeing all the specialists,” Nurse said. “I think there may be one [more], and those kind of turn into some more discussions. I kind of just got up to speed on all of it today.</p><p>“But, yeah, I think it’s now decision time. There’s so many opinions and weighing all that out and seeing exactly what’s gonna happen, I think we’re close to that point of him making a decision on which route he’s gonna take. Just not quite there yet.”</p><p>Nurse said the decision on Embiid’s recovery plan is “a collaborative decision” with the big man, the many doctors he’s met with, and Simon Rice, the 76ers’ vice president of athlete care.</p><p>Nurse said that Embiid has been “really good” in this process, adding that Embiid is “right there involved with these doctors, and he’s very smart and understanding what all the ramifications are, what the chances, probabilities, all this kind of stuff that he’s weighing out.”</p><p>Tyrese Maxey remains out due to a finger sprain on his right hand, though he is going through on-court workouts. He was previously dealing with a lower back sprain, but he’s no longer listed with that on <a href="https://ak-static.cms.nba.com/referee/injury/Injury-Report_2025-03-26_05PM.pdf" rel="noopener">the injury report</a>.</p><p>“It’s totally a pain tolerance thing for him,” Nurse said. Maxey has met with a specialist and is getting used to playing with a splint, he added.</p><p>The question does remain, with 10 games left and a play-in spot falling further out of reach, of why the 76ers would return their All-Star guard to the lineup. With a rotation of players he’s mostly never played with and the results only impacting what the draft lottery looks like, it seems that the risks outweigh the rewards of letting Maxey back out there.</p><p>“I see it as he’s obviously one of our really good players. He’s still very young. There’s games to play,” the 76ers head coach said. “He hasn’t played for a while, and I think there’s things he can work on. There’s things he can do. That’s my standpoint on it.”</p><h2><b>76ers dealing with abundance of injuries as end of season approaches</b></h2><p>With Paul George, Jared McCain and Eric Gordon among the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/76ers-news-season-ending-paul-george-injury-update" rel="noopener">other 76ers ruled out for the rest of the season</a>, Nurse discussed the other role players that have opportunities to play again eventually.</p><p>Kyle Lowry, who hasn’t played since February 9 due to a hip injury, is starting to do on-court workouts, too.</p><p>“We should see him here again, as well, fairly soon,” Nurse said.</p><p>Meanwhile, Andre Drummond “needs a little more time” to recover from a left toe sprain, and Kelly Oubre Jr. is day-to-day with a right knee sprain. Both veterans have missed eight of the last nine games, including the last seven.</p><p>Lonnie Walker IV, who is out of concussion protocol and is now listed on the injury report with a neck sprain, has also started on-court workouts. Nurse said he hopes to have him and Oubre available this weekend when the 76ers host the Miami Heat on Saturday and the Toronto Raptors on Sunday.</p><p>Exacerbating the issue for the 76ers is the fact that they’re running out of games to play their two-way players, Jeff Dowtin Jr., Jalen Hood-Schifino, and Alex Reese. Dowtin, who has been on a two-way deal the whole season and has been made active for 47 games, has just three left for this season. Hood-Schifino and Reese, Nurse estimates, have seven and five games left, respectively.</p><p>Hood-Schifino will not play against the Wizards due to an illness, but with active rosters that barely meet the requirement of eight available players, the 76ers have to be selective. That only leaves a shorthanded group even more shorthanded. The sooner this season is over for them, the better.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Nick Nurse said that Maxey would be <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1898920987241938999" rel="noopener">considered questionable to play</a> in Atlanta.</p><p>Maxey has missed the Sixers’ last two games and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/76ers-news-tyrese-maxey-trying-to-learn-shoot-with-3-fingers-injury">fought through the finger injury before that</a>, struggling to shoot and dribble the ball. He has yet to play since sustaining the back injury in a loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. Philly would be smart to be overly cautious with his injury recovery, as back issues can become very tricky and risking Maxey’s health at this point in the season isn’t worth it.</p><h2><b>76ers injury report</b></h2><p>Embiid (left knee meniscus surgery), George (left groin soreness), Jared McCain (left knee meniscus surgery), Eric Gordon (right wrist surgery), Kyle Lowry (right hip injury management) and Kelly Oubre Jr. (right ankle sprain) will also be out.</p><p>Andre Drummond is listed as questionable due to illness. He was listed as questionable for the Sixers’ win over the Jazz but ended up playing.</p><h2><b>Hawks injury report</b></h2><p>For the home team, Trae Young (left quad contusion), Caris LeVert (left middle finger sprain) and Vit Krejci (lumbar fracture) are listed as questionable and Jalen Johnson (left shoulder surgery), Kobe Bufkin (right shoulder surgery) and Larry Nance Jr. (right medial femoral condyle fracture) remain out.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Tyrese Maxey and Paul George are banged up and it’s looking like the Sixers could be without both of them again.</p><p>According to a team official, Maxey <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1898418551947424116" rel="noopener">did individual workouts</a> as the Sixers practiced on Saturday and is “unlikely” to play on Sunday against the Utah Jazz. George, who did not practice, will miss that game and Monday’s road game against the Atlanta Hawks.</p><p>Nick Nurse said Maxey’s back injury “isn’t too bad” and that it’s not “nearly as serious as it certainly could have been. But they’re gonna want to make sure he’s moving and landing and jumping and being able to tolerate all that stuff.” Maxey’s finger injury on his right hand is still giving him problems, too. Nurse said it’s “not getting much better.”</p><p>As for George, Nurse thinks the Sixers will have some more information on his groin issue soon. PG, who is also dealing with a finger injury on his left hand, was listed as questionable for Philly’s last game but did not play.</p><h2><b>76ers continue to face several injuries to key players</b></h2><p>Although Joel Embiid’s season-ending knee problems are the biggest injury issues facing the 76ers, their constantly changing lineups have made continuity an impossibility this season.</p><p>In 62 games, they’ve had 39 different starting lineups. They have yet to see a five-man lineup play 75 minutes together. Every other team in the NBA has at least one such group and most have multiple five-man groupings that have exceeded 100 minutes.</p><p>“I’d certainly, probably, rather be doing something else,” Nurse said about reorganizing lineups and nearly starting from scratch game after game, “but it is what it is right now. I gotta get ’em organized. I think first and foremost, we gotta be able to execute some things at both ends of the floor, special situations, et cetera. That’s where we gotta spend a lot of time right now. It’s just what we gotta do.”</p><p>“I’m just trying to put ’em in positions where they can get some of that stuff on speed dial so they can concentrate on playing hard and making shots and making plays rather than constantly thinking about, ‘Where am I supposed to be on this particular situation?’ or, ‘What scheme are we in?’ or whatever,” Nurse continued. “We’ll just keep going over and over that stuff.”</p><p>Andre Drummond did not practice on Saturday due to an illness. Justin Edwards, who did participate in practice, said that his sprained left ankle is “better” and that he’s “taking it day by day.”</p><p>With Embiid, Jared McCain and Eric Gordon done for the season and Kyle Lowry seemingly not making any progress with his hip injury, it goes without saying that the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/76ers-news-philly-certainly-concerned-paul-george-groin-injury-per-nick-nurse">76ers have their work cut out for them</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The former suffered his back injury in the loss to the Blazers while the latter started dealing with ground tightness in halftime of the prior game. The Sixers have been unable to catch a break with injuries this season and, sadly, that’s not stopping any time soon.</p><h2><b>76ers injury report</b></h2><p>The Sixers’ injury report, as expected, is quite long. Embiid (left knee injury management), Jared McCain (left knee meniscus surgery), Eric Gordon (right wrist surgery) and Kyle Lowry (right hip injury management) will all remain sidelined along with Maxey and Justin Edwards.</p><p>Kelly Oubre Jr. (illness) was listed as probable after missing the Sixers’ last game. Edwards (left ankle sprain) and Grimes (left bicep soreness) were also listed as questionable and Yabusele (eye; protective glasses) was listed on the injury report as available.</p><h2><b>Timberwolves injury report</b></h2><p>Minnesota only has a few injuries to deal with. Julius Randle (right groin strain) was listed as questionable but made available to play and Rudy Gobert (low back injury maintenance) was ruled out.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
