PHILADELPHIA — As the Philadelphia 76ers prepare to take on the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday on the second night of a back-to-back, they will be a bit short-handed as they will be without a key reserve guard.
Quentin Grimes (right ankle soreness) will be ruled out in this one. It appears that Grimes suffered the injury in Monday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets.

As for Joel Embiid, the big fella will play. He was listed as questionable due to left knee injury management, but the 2023 MVP winner will play and be in the lineup to help the Sixers bounce back from Monday’s loss.
Paul George will also be in the lineup. The 9-time All-Star was listed as probable due to left knee injury management and missed Monday’s loss in Charlotte.
Tip off between the Sixers and the Bucks is set for 8 p.m. EST from the Xfinity Mobile Arena in South Philadelphia.
