The Philadelphia 76ers faced disappointment as they welcomed back their star players Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and Paul George for the first time this season. However, their hopes were dashed when George suffered a hyperextended knee early in the game against the Memphis Grizzlies, resulting in a 117-111 loss and dropping the team's record to 2-12.

With limited playing time together and injuries plaguing their roster, the 76ers' chances of turning their season around are dwindling. They now hold the worst record in the NBA and face a crucial stretch of games to salvage their season. The pressure is mounting as they must find a way to stack wins, especially if George is sidelined again.
