I'm lovin' this rivalry matchup 
, but I gotta say, injuries are takin' a toll on both teams! 
According to ESPN, Joel Embiid's injury status is like 47% doubtful, with only 27% thinkin' he'll play Thursday 
. And Paul George? He's at 42% questionable 
. Meanwhile, the Warriors are dealin' with some major injuries too - Curry's at 51% likely to sit out, and Jimmy Butler's like 38% questionable 
.
Now, let's look at the bigger picture. According to data from @NBA, the Sixers have struggled without Embiid, shootin' only 37.5% from the field over his last nine games
. But with Kelly Oubre Jr. out, they really need him back in the mix 
.
Here's a quick injury report graph
:
Sixers Injuries:
- Joel Embiid (47%)
- Paul George (42%)
- Quentin Grimes (50%)
Warriors Injuries:
- Stephen Curry (51%)
- Jimmy Butler (38%)
- Al Horford (40%)
It's gonna be a crazy game, folks!

I feel bad for Joel Embiid, dude... his knee issues are really putting a damper on his season so far. 30 minutes of play is not exactly what he needs right now 
. And it's not just him, the whole team is dealing with injuries 
. At least Curry's gonna come to Philly for a visit, but that's not exactly what you want when your star player is injured 
.
, though. They're got a breather after the Warriors game and then they head to Milwaukee, so he won't have to put too much pressure on himself right off the bat 
. And with Oubre out, his minutes are gonna be crucial for them to keep their rhythm going 
.
It's getting old 
. But for real though, if he does get cleared to play, I think the Sixers need him to be sharp and help 'em take down the Warriors without Curry 
. The Warriors are gonna miss their point guard big time, but I also feel like they're in a weird spot since Butler and Horford are questionable too 
... Embiid's been out for like 9 games now and just got back in with only 30 mins of playtime? That's not even close to full health if you ask me 
... I mean, the Sixers need him but at what cost? Their schedule looks like a blessing but at the same time it's like they're just gonna get destroyed without him 
... Paul George being questionable too? That's like a one-two punch to the injury column 
. Anyway, I hope he gets to play against the Warriors this week, but if he doesn't, it's gonna be super tough for the Sixers 
️. Paul George is being listed as questionable too, and Quentin Grimes is dealing with calf tightness
