The first half of the Paul George era on the Philadelphia 76ers has not gone as desired. On a brand-new max deal, it’s safe to say George has not lived up to the numbers so far.
Around the midway point of the season, the Indiana Pacers and Philadelphia 76ers are clearly trending in opposite directions. The Pacers eye their eighth win in nine games Saturday in Indianapolis when they host the scuffling Sixers, who will continue to take the court without their best player.
Earlier this month, Pete Nance believed his time with the Philadelphia 76ers had come to a close. On January 7, the Sixers waived the two-way center as the team started getting healthier.
Joel Embiid’s injury issues continue to plague the Philadelphia 76ers. The team’s star center is dealing with increased swelling in his left knee after an on-court workout Thursday, according to a team statement.
It’s still not likely that the Sixers tank, but with how dire the 2024-25 season has become, it’s worth taking a look at the current situation. It’s been quite a season for the Philadelphia 76ers, and we’re only just coming up on the halfway mark.
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will be sidelined at least another seven to 10 days with swelling in his left knee, the team announced Friday.

Joel Embiid has been sidelined for most of the month with a new injury, but it sounds like an old ailment is now going to keep the Philadelphia 76ers star out even longer.
The Philadelphia 76ers are in a tough position; at 15-24, Philly is in 11th in the Eastern Conference, and while the roster would normally indicate a contender-level team, the constant injury struggles have made it less and less likely the Sixers will be able to salvage this season.
The Philadelphia 76ers are having one of their worst seasons of the Joel Embiid era. They are 3-7 in their last 10 games, and again, out of the play-in position.
Last season, Tyrese Maxey put together a breakout campaign for the Philadelphia 76ers that saw him be named an All-Star and win Most Improved player.

The Philadelphia 76ers lost another game last night, this time to the New York Knicks. They lost in overtime 125-119. They were once again without Joel Embiid, who has missed six games in a row.
Over the past few seasons, Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid has been widely regarded as one of the NBA’s top stars. However, amid continued injury woes, the former MVP is the victim of a steady decline in the top 100 player rankings.
Coming into the season, the Philadelphia 76ers were seen as one of the most likely teams to make a sizable trade. Now, with a losing record and uncertainty of the team’s ability to get into the playoffs looming, it’s tougher to tell what they choose to do ahead of the 2025 NBA trade deadline.
