The Philadelphia 76ers look to be lost without Joel Embiid on the floor. Even though the 2023 NBA MVP met with the media on Thursday, there is no guarantee when Embiid will return. The Sixers are a completely different team without him. In 24 games this season without Embiid, the Sixers are 7-17 and have 12 losses in their last 16 games.
The Flyers have another big weekend coming up with a Friday Night matchup against the Capitals in Washington, DC, and then back home against the Ottawa Senators on Saturday Night. The Caps are currently on the outside looking in of the Eastern Conference playoffs, trailing the Flyers by six points in the standings. It’s an important game for the Flyers who will be without their newly acquired defenseman Jamie Drysdale and they are hoping for Travis Konecny to return this weekend.
