The 76ers got steamrolled by the Knicks in Game 1 of their second-round Eastern Conference playoff series. With Game 2 set for Wednesday night, Philadelphia will be without one of its star players.
Hours before tip at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Joel Embiid was ruled out for Wednesday’s game. The superstar big man is dealing with a right ankle sprain and right hip soreness, which prevented him from participating in team shootaround this morning. Thus, the Sixers will be without him when they take the floor on Wednesday.
