Will Maxey, Joel Embiid, and Paul George ever play in the same game? 610-632-0975. As you know, George only recently returned from his knee injury. He’s played two games. Embiid wasn’t healthy to begin the year and then got suspended three games for shoving Marcus Hayes, so he’s out until at least the Knicks game. Looking at the schedule, “a couple of weeks” could take us until November 22nd, perhaps, when the Sixers host the Nets in Philly. That’s about 14 days, and Maxey would miss seven games. If “a couple of weeks” ends up being three weeks, give or take, then he’d be out until maybe November 30th or December 3rd, which are road games against Detroit and Charlotte. How long will Tyrese be sidelined? We can’t wait to find out!
