Joel Embiid has been getting injured and getting bounced in the second round of the playoffs in almost every season of his career. Now he is “managing” with a swelling in his left knee.
Joel Embiid is 30 years old and only played 39 games last season, with the season before winning the MVP. Joel has missed 11 games already this season because of his knee and a 3 game suspension.
Joel signed a $193 million contract, skipped the whole preseason and is averaging a whopping 19.8 PPg, 7.5 RPG And 3.5 APG while shooting a terrible, atrocious 37.9% from the field.
Even with Paul George on their team, the Philadelphia 76ers are currently the second worst team in the league with a 5-14 record, only the Wizards have a worst record. George, Maxey and Embiid have only played in 1 game together in the season.
