Joel Embiid has been dealing with a left knee issue all season long and did not play in the fourth quarter against the Nets as the lineup Philadelphia used was rolling. Coach Nick Nurse gave an update on Embiid as well as other injured players:

George was out-hustled for the rebound, failing to jump or even raise his arms in pursuit of the ball. The lack of effort cost the Sixers a potential win and dropped their record to 20-26, the fourth-worst in the Eastern Conference.
