The Philadelphia 76ers continue their 6-game journey Saturday at the Staples Center, as they face the Los Angeles Clippers in the fourth game of the trip. These are still a short group, the team still lacks Joel Embiid, as well as the new acquisition George Hill, but there are updates for both players.
Embiid has not played since suffering a bruised bone in his left knee back on March 12, but there seems to be good news at the end of it as he progresses well through his rehabilitation process. He resumed basketball activities on the field, while continuing to intensify his condition, which is a good sign for Philadelphia as he hopes to recover soon.

As for Hill, he has not played in a game since Jan. 24 after undergoing a procedure on his right thumb to correct a problem that bothered him. He expects to resume basketball activities on the field in the coming days and there will be a new update of his status quite soon.
An update George Hill:
While he is still out, he will resume his basketball activities in the coming days, and the next update of his status will be provided as appropriate. #Sixers

Meanwhile, the Clippers expect Kawhi Leonard and Marcus Morris Sr. to return to their lineup in this one, so this will be a difficult match for the Sixers to get a win.
