Joel Embiid looking good physically in workouts
Tim Bontemps: On Wednesday, Embiid’s time on the court inside Wells Fargo Center was limited to him dribbling during the timeout between the first and second quarters. He did, however, work out in front of reporters on both Monday and Tuesday, and multiple sources continue to say Embiid looks good physically in workouts as he works his way back to game action. Although it’s gotten a lot less attention, it’s a similar story for Milwaukee, where Khris Middleton missed the opener in Philly after having offseason surgery on both ankles.

Too early to call anything a catastrophic loss w/o Embiid and PG but if you can’t beat this hobbled version of the Raps, doesn’t exactly bode well – 9:24 PM

31-30 for the Embiid-less, PG-less 6ers over the RJ-less, !Q-less Raptors. Nice start by starters and bench held their own. – 7:50 PM

Andre Drummond, who committed five fouls in 25 minutes on Wednesday night, has to check out after three minutes in Toronto after picking up a pair of fouls. Without any other traditional centers available, Sixers need Drummond to be available while Embiid is out. – 7:19 PM

In the absence of Quickley and Barrett, Raptors start Mitchell, Dick, Agbaji, Barnes and Poeltl. Our old pal K. Lowry starts for Philly with Maxey, Oubre, Martin and Drummond. No Embiid, George for the Sixers – 6:29 PM

Tyrese Maxey was asked if tonight had a similar feeling to the stretch without Joel Embiid last year.

No Embiid, George, Kawhi … on the first big night of the season. Silver has a problem. He let the police minutes nerds in the buildings, let them dictate policy with load management, had a coach like Pop with diminishing skills practice it, and now he has a soft-ass product! – 6:03 PM

NBA reportedly to investigate Joel Embiid’s early season absence
This is a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing — as long as Embiid is legitimately injured. It’s easy to imagine he is.

More on this storyline
Tim Bontemps: The plan, from sources around both Embiid and Middleton, is similar: Take the time now to make sure both players are feeling good and hope that translates into healthy play in the spring, when both teams hope to make deep playoff runs. -via ESPN / October 26, 2024
NBA on TNT: “We’re not steel workers, we’re not nurses… we’re playing basketball, at the most, four days a week.” Embiid’s load management isn’t flying with Chuck 👀 -via Twitter / October 24, 2024
Noah Levick: Nick Nurse: Paul George and Joel Embiid both did most of Sixers’ practice today, including some live drills. Both “look like they’re progressing.” -via Twitter @NoahLevick / October 24, 2024
