Philadelphia 76ers Injury Update: Joel Embiid Mystery Intensifies Panic, Concerns Over V.J. Edgecombe as 5 Listed vs. Hawks (Nov. 30)

Joel Embiid will miss his 10th consecutive game when the Philadelphia 76ers lock horns against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday. The one-time league MVP is listed as out on the injury report with a right knee injury, which the Sixers have deemed day-to-day for 18 days.

The mystery surrounding Embiid's fitness has only intensified panic among Philadelphia supporters. Despite being day-to-day for more than half a month, there remains no clarity on when Embiid will suit up for the Sixers again.

Meanwhile, rookie V.J. Edgecombe could make his comeback after missing three consecutive games. The No. 3 pick out of Baylor is listed as questionable with a left calf injury.

Sounds like a VJ Edgecombe return tomorrow is at least in play. Nick Nurse said he went through today’s walkthrough, which the team doesn’t bother putting a player in if they know the player won’t be available. Was far from committal.

Andre Drummond isn't expected to miss any significant time after suffering a knee injury in the previous game against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran center exited the game in a wheelchair, sparking major concerns. However, an MRI confirmed that the Sixers' big man suffered no structural damage to his knee and is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game.

Paul George isn't on the injury report and is cleared to play against the Hawks. Meanwhile, Trendon Watford (left adductor) and Kelly Oubre Jr. (left knee) will remain sidelined. The Sixers are currently sitting in eighth place in the East and clinging to a play-in spot with a 10-8 record.
