The preseason hasn’t been optimistic for the Philadelphia 76ers as they’re already coping with accidents to their two superstars, Joel Embiid and Paul George.
Embiid was dominated out of preseason play as he recovers from a knee damage he suffered final season, a troubling signal for a star who can’t appear to remain wholesome.
George noticed his preseason minimize quick when he injured his leg on a routine defensive play.
It seemed unhealthy on movie as his leg appeared to get caught as he was attempting to run, and he was identified with a hyperextended left knee.
George has an intensive damage historical past, so for him to get harm earlier than the beginning of the 2024-25 NBA season is regarding, to say the least.
Nonetheless, he not too long ago gave a optimistic replace and mentioned he doesn’t count on to overlook an excessive amount of time.
“I’m good,” George mentioned, through “Podcast P.” “It was a normal play that I’ve made so many times of a guy dribbling across, I reach, poke the ball free, and I guess my leg just kind of got stuck. My knee locked up, my leg locked up, and when I went to go push off, all my momentum is going forward and my leg just went inwards.”
