While the Philadelphia 76ers planned to be shorthanded against the Oklahoma City Thunder as early as Monday night, the team didn’t anticipate so many absences when they initially submitted their injury report.

The Philadelphia 76ers played without their All-Star trio of Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey in a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George sat out Tuesday night against Los Angeles with an injured finger, the 15th game he's missed this season. George sustained tendon damage to the little finger on his non-shooting left hand when he jammed it Saturday against Chicago.

Just as he looked like he was finding his stride with the Philadelphia 76ers, Paul George once again finds himself on the sidelines. Ahead of their matchup with the LA Lakers, the team provided an update on the All-Star forward.
