LeBron James, Joel Embiid Out Saturday Due To Injury Management

LeBron James and Joel Embiid will miss the Philadelphia 76ers' matchup against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday due to injury management. James will miss the game due to low back/sciatica, with Embiid out with right foot plantar fasciitis. The Hornets game is a back-to-back for the Sixers, with the team expected to be cautious with James and Embiid throughout the season. James finished with what Nick Nurse called his "best game" for the Sixers on Friday night against the Knicks.
