The Philadelphia 76ers are preparing to host the Toronto Raptors in a critical game on Saturday. This matchup marks the first of back-to-back contests for the Sixers. After suffering two consecutive losses in recent games against the Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team aims to return to winning form.

Paul George Injury Update

Unfortunately for the 76ers, they will face the Raptors without star player Paul George. He is currently recovering from offseason arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. The nine-time All-Star is prioritizing his complete recovery before returning to the court.

George is working closely with medical professionals and plans to consult with them over the weekend. His intention is to regain his peak performance level once he resumes play.

Additional Player Updates

In addition to George’s absence, Dominick Barlow will also be sidelined for this matchup. Barlow has been dealing with a right elbow laceration and will miss his seventh consecutive game. He is scheduled to see a surgeon for a follow-up on Monday.
