Uncertain for Tuesday

The news arrived after Embiid missed the previous six games because of a sprained left foot. The seven-time All-Star has only played 13 games this season because of the sprained foot, knee swelling, left knee management, a right sinus fracture, and a three-game suspension.

The Philadelphia 76ers will look to get back in the win column on Tuesday when they play host to the Western Conference's No. 1 team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Sixers are sitting at 15-22 and need a win in the worst way possible.

Here is the official status of Philadelphia 76ers forwards Paul George and Guerschon Yabusele against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday.

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid, who has missed the last six games with a sprained left foot and has appeared in only 13 of the team's 39 games this season, will be sidelined for at least another week,

Guerschon Yabusele is a terrific offensive rebounder, but he's found a niche within that to generate extra possessions.

Embiid and Drummond will both miss their fifth consecutive game with a sprained left foot and sprained left toe, respectively.

Joel Embiid has played in just 13 games this season due to an assortment of injuries. That was set to change this weekend, he’d missed Philadelphia’s last six games with a sprained foot but was going through workouts with the team to prepare for a return to the court.

It’s the latest setback for Embiid, the often brilliant and frequently injured star whose games played total will remain stuck on 13 this unlucky season as the team heads for three challenging road games. It comes with the Sixers having lost four straight games and seven of nine ahead of a trip to play three teams in playoff position.

Yabusele is the significant question mark. He came off worse in a knee-to-knee collision against the Knicks. The Frenchman, in his return to the NBA after five years abroad, has started 18 games and is the only 76er to appear in all 39 games.

With Joel Embiid once again struggling to get on the court, the Philadelphia 76ers need to start preparing for the worst, which could mean an unusual trade.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: the Philadelphia 76ers head to Denver to face the Nuggets but won't have Joel Embiid in the lineup. Unfortunately
