The Philadelphia 76ers dropped a huge update on Joel Embiid and Jared McCain's status ahead of their clash against the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday.
Latest update on Joel Embiid
Embiid was not placed on the Sixers' injury report, while McCain's status was upgraded to "probable" for the first time this season.
Joel Embiid missed the last game against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday because of a left knee injury. In his absence, the Sixers maintained their streak going and registered their fifth win in six games, currently sitting atop the Eastern Conference standings.
Latest update on Jared McCains
Jared McCains has missed the first six games of the campaign due to right thumb and left knee surgery recoveries. The 6-foot-3 guard picked up the injury last year in December during his rookie season. There is a solid chance the former No.16 pick makes his season debut on Tuesday against the Bulls.
Two Philadelphia 76ers players are out from Tuesday's game. Paul George has not been approved to suit up yet and will stay on the sidelines because of a left knee injury. The veteran forward is putting in the hard yards in training and practice sessions, but his possible comeback date remains uncertain.
Both Sixers and Bulls hold a 5-1 record after six games, claiming the top two spots in the conference standings. The team that comes up Triumphant on Tuesday will become the sole owner of the top position.
