Joel Embiid suffered another injury setback and will be out at least another week, per the Philadelphia 76ers in a press release. Embiid, who has missed the last six games, has swelling in the left knee and will be reevaluated in 7-to-10 days.

Joel Embiid's ongoing knee issues should alter the Sixers' strategy heading into the NBA trade deadline, as they now have far less incentive to make a win-now move.

The center's contract becomes more of an albatross with every game he misses, every night that he happens to suit up and ends up hobbling from one end of the court to the other.
