76ers' Paul George trends towards comeback in latest injury update

Despite the surprising amount of success, the Philadelphia 76ers (7-5) have maintained a reasonable record to begin the 2025-26 season. As far as payroll, the 76ers haven't had two of their top-paid players for the majority of the season.

Joel Embiid has appeared in just six games with a minutes restriction, and Paul George is yet to make his season debut after undergoing knee surgery in the offseason.

However, Philadelphia could be seeing Paul George back in the lineup sooner rather than later.
