NEW YORK — The Philadelphia 76ers are getting set to take on the New York Knicks in an elimination game from Madison Square Garden on Tuesday. The Sixers are down 3-1 in the series and are looking to live and fight for another day.
As the Sixers convened for shootaround on Tuesday morning, it was revealed that Joel Embiid and Kelly Oubre Jr. would not attend for Philadelphia. Embiid is dealing with a migraine and is resting while Oubre did not feel well so they both missed shootaround.
It does not change Embiid’s status for Tuesday. He is still questionable due to his left knee injury recovery.
