After an on-court workout Thursday, Joel Embiid suffered more swelling in his left knee and will miss at least 7-10 days. ESPN’s Shams Charania was first to report. The Philadelphia 76ers’ season goes from bad to worse as the superstar big man has played in just 13 games this year.

The Philadelphia 76ers entered the NBA season ready to rock following a great offseason. They landed star forward Paul George to pair with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.

Embiid has experienced some swelling in his left knee after a workout he had on Thursday and he will be re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days which means he will also miss the Jan. 24 matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
