Joel Embiid of the Philadelphia 76ers is dealing with a sinus fracture but may only miss one and a half games. He is listed as questionable for the upcoming match against the Charlotte Hornets. Embiid's injury occurred during a loss to the Indiana Pacers, and while Andre Drummond expressed optimism about his return, the final decision rests with Embiid and the medical staff.

Despite the injury issues, the Sixers have shown resilience, winning three of their last four games. However, they remain 12th in the Eastern Conference with a record of 8-16. The team is also facing challenges with Jared McCain out indefinitely due to knee surgery and Caleb Martin listed as out for the Hornets game.
