Joel Embiid to Miss Additional Week Due to Knee Swelling

The Philadelphia 76ers' star center will be re-evaluated in 7-10 days after experiencing swelling in his left knee during a workout.

Joel Embiid, the 2023 NBA MVP, will miss at least three more games after swelling in his surgically repaired left knee flared up during a recent on-court workout.
The Sixers announced that Embiid will be re-evaluated in 7-10 days, ruling him out for their road games against the Pacers, Bucks, and Nuggets.
This marks another setback in a challenging season for Embiid, who has played only 13 games due to various injuries and a suspension, with his performance below career averages.
The 76ers are struggling without their star player, holding a 15-24 record and sitting in 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings.
Philadelphia's hopes for a playoff push are dwindling as the team faces a difficult schedule and ongoing injury concerns for Embiid and other key players.
