Joel Embiid Will Play Through Injury
4 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) mentioned that he was fairly sore after Monday's contest against the Indiana Pacers. However, Embiid said that he is willing to play through the pain in order to get the No. 1 seed. The Sixers training staff might not like that idea, but at least Embiid is being a team player. Embiid is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. That is the last game before the All-Star break, so hopefully Embiid can get some rest and be ready for the second half.
