To clarify: the issue that has caused Embiid to miss this most recent time is swelling in his left knee—not the same issue he managed in the playoffs. There is not currently a long-term concern and he is considered day-to-day, per a source.
>To clarify, Joel Embiid’s injury last year was an LCL sprain in his right knee. This year’s injury is swelling in his left knee. They are not related

Jesus christ I’m just waiting for the team, nurse said yesterday the swelling is down and he should be back Friday, until I hear otherwise thats what I’m going with for my sanity.

Not gonna say I told you so, but my comment in the other thread was basically “that doesn’t make any sense at all”. Glad Bodner set the record straight. National reporters just love to stress us out.

If Joel needs rest, then rest him. Seriously. But if he can play then let’s go!!! ![img](emote|t5_2scmr|5862)

To clarify: Joel’s stat padding will cost us big time
