Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the visiting Boston Celtics due to right knee soreness, the team announced.
Embiid, 31, has been nursing left knee issues for most of the past two years after tearing his meniscus midway through the 2023-24 season.
A 2022-23 MVP and seven-time All-Star, Embiid is averaging 19.7 points and 5.5 rebounds in six games this season.
This already is the third meeting this season between the Atlantic Division rivals. They squared off on Opening Night in Boston, where the Sixers escaped with a 117-116 victory. However, the Celtics claimed the rematch in Philadelphia on Halloween with a one-point win of their own, 109-108.
Embiid's next chance to play would be Friday when the 76ers visit the Detroit Pistons.
