Embiid suffered a sinus fracture when Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin’s hand hit the 76ers’ center in the final seconds before halftime. Mathurin was collecting an offensive rebound and attempting to lay the ball back up.

Shams Charania of ESPN reports that the 7-footer incurred a sinus fracture during Philadelphia's 121-107 defeat to the visiting Indiana Pacers. The loss dropped the 76ers to a paltry 7-16 record, while improving the Pacers to 11-15 on the year.
