Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons have been ruled out of Sunday's NBA All-Star Game in Atlanta because of a coronavirus contact tracing issue, the league announced about eight hours before tipoff.

Embiid and Simmons are in Atlanta, though it was not immediately clear if they would have to remain there and quarantine or if they could leave and resume their All-Star break elsewhere. “Prior to traveling to Atlanta, Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons had contact with an individual who is confirmed today to have tested positive for the coronavirus," the league said Sunday.

Embiid would have been a starter for Team Durant, which will be coached by Philadelphia's Doc Rivers. Simmons would have been a reserve for Team LeBron.
