The Philadelphia 76ers faced the Memphis Grizzlies in a disappointing game, marking the first time this season that their star trio of Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey played together. However, the excitement was short-lived as Paul George suffered a left knee hyperextension and exited the game.

This injury is particularly concerning as it is the same knee that previously sidelined him for the first five games of the season. Although Embiid also experienced a scare after a collision, he managed to stay in the game.

The Sixers, who were expected to contend for a top spot in the Eastern Conference, now find themselves struggling at the bottom with a record of 2-11, plagued by injuries and setbacks throughout the season.
