Latest Injury Report for Joel Embiid
Injured Sixers Star Remains Sidelined
The Philadelphia 76ers have been dealt a major blow with the news that star center Joel Embiid will miss an extended period of time with a torn medial collateral ligament (MCL) in his left knee.
Sixers Brace for Embiid's Absence
The injury occurred during the Sixers' recent game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Embiid was driving to the basket when he was hit hard by Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley. The big man immediately went down in pain and was helped off the court.
An MRI confirmed the MCL tear, which is expected to keep Embiid out for at least 4-6 weeks. The Sixers, who are currently 20-21 this season, will now have to navigate without their All-Star center.
Embiid's Return Remains Uncertain
The Sixers are hopeful that Embiid will be able to return to action before the playoffs, but his recovery timeline remains uncertain. The team will monitor Embiid's progress closely and provide updates as they become available.
