Philadelphia 76ers All-Stars Joel Embiid and Paul George will miss the season opener against Milwaukee and could miss more games as they return from injuries. George has a bone bruise but did not suffer any structural damage when he hyperextended his left knee last week. The Sixers did not say Tuesday how many more games George could miss, and his return to play will be assessed later in the week. Embiid did not play in the preseason because of a sore left knee. He also will miss Friday’s game against Toronto and will be reevaluated this weekend. Milwaukee coach Doc Rivers says Bucks forward Khris Middleton isn’t expected to play Wednesday.
