Can you have a worse start to the season than the Sixers? While the team hoped to play leading roles in the East with its XXL recruitment around Joel Embiid, here it is stuck (7 wins – 16 losses) in 12th place in their conference as we reach the third of the season , the fault of countless injuries…
Tyrese Maxey, Paul George and Joel Embiid have thus increased the number of trips to the infirmary, the pivot having to return there in recent days, and it is now the ray of sunshine at the start of the campaign in Philadelphia, Jared McCainwhich must stop, the fault of a tear in the lateral meniscus of the left knee!
The franchise announced that its rookieone of Nick Nurse's three players (along with Kelly Oubre Jr. and Guerschon Yabusele) to have played every match so far, would now have to undergo surgery and would therefore be absent until further notice. There is therefore a good chance that his season is already over.
However, everything depends on the location of the tear, and protocols, like downtime, can therefore vary. But Sixers fans are already very familiar with the subject.
For Philadelphia, it is in any case another hard blow in a season which is turning into a nightmare.
