The Philadelphia 76ers will take on the Chicago Bulls tonight at the Wells Fargo Center. With a woeful 20-36 record and standing at 12th in the Eastern Conference, it has turned out to be a disappointing season in every means for the Sixers. One of the stark reasons behind their plight is the fall of Joel Embiid, who has not looked a shadow of his usual self this season. From injuries to dwindling form, the Cameroonian has endured a tough phase. However, there is still time left for him to turn the tables, should he feature regularly. Taking that into consideration, let's take a look at Philly's injury report ahead of the game against the Bulls and determine the status of Joel Embiid for the game.

Philadelphia 76ers Injury Report
Aside from Joel Embiid, there are five more names listed in the Philadelphia 76ers injury report. Alongside Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, the team’s leading scorer with 27.4 points per game, is also questionable due to a finger injury. Moreover, Jared McCain (out for the season), Eric Gordon (wrist), Kyle Lowry (hip), and Justin Edwards (ankle), will miss out on tonight's game.
Philadelphia 76ers have lost 7 games on the trot and could end the horrific run tonight as the Bulls also haven't picked a win in their last six games. Thus, an intriguing battle is set to unfold, let's wait and witness who comes out on top tonight.
