The Philadelphia 76ers faced another setback as Paul George exited their game against the Memphis Grizzlies with a left knee hyperextension, which has now been confirmed to include a bone bruise. He will miss the next two games and be reevaluated shortly.
This injury comes after George had already missed the start of the season due to a similar issue. The 76ers, who were expected to be strong contenders in the Eastern Conference, are struggling at the bottom with a 2-12 record.
Joel Embiid also faced injury concerns during the game, limping after a collision but remaining in play. The team's hopes for a successful season are dwindling as injuries continue to plague their roster.
