What could be the take on Joel Embiid 's situation? The Philadelphia 76ers with their extensive injury list, are in trouble on most game nights these days. After their defeat against the New York Knicks in their recent matchup, they now sit at 11th in the East with a 15-24 record and postseason hopes might be slipping away already.

“While the foot sprain has healed, Embiid experienced an increase in swelling in his left knee following the workout,” the Sixers said in a statement. “After consulting with team medical staff and external doctors, Embiid will receive treatment in the coming days to address the swelling.”

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid, who has missed the last six games with a sprained left foot and has appeared in only 13 of the team's 39 games this season, will be sidelined for at least another week,
