Paul George and Joel Embiid will miss their second consecutive games due to their respective left knee injuries. George is dealing with a left knee bone bruise he suffered in a loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday while Embiid is dealing with swelling in his left knee that caused him to be scratched from Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets.

It wasn't exactly a secret the 76ers were having a team meeting Monday night after dropping to 2-11 — they didn't open the locker room for about an hour after the game and didn't speak to the media until then.

Embiid and Maxey became arguably the NBA’s most dangerous offensive tandem last season. The Sixers likely need a return to form from the duo.
