Philadelphia: So, it looks like Joel Embiid might not play in the next game against the Jazz. The Sixers have him listed as questionable, which isn’t great news for fans.
He’s dealing with a left foot sprain and a right sinus fracture, so he’s been wearing a mask lately. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster for him, especially after that weird fall onto a security guard during a game.
Even with the injury, Embiid played pretty well in the last game, scoring 27 points. But the Sixers are already missing a couple of other players, so they really need him to be on the court.
They’ve been doing okay lately, winning eight out of their last eleven games. The upcoming schedule looks manageable, with games against teams that are struggling a bit.
After the Jazz, they’ll face the Trail Blazers and then the Kings, who just fired their coach. It’s a good chance for the Sixers to keep the momentum going, but they’ll need Embiid healthy to make it happen.
