Joel Embiid nears return for Philadelphia 76ers

Posted : 02 April 2024

Sources have indicated that Philadelphia 76ers' star Joel Embiid is on the verge of making his comeback, possibly debuting against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night. Having been sidelined since January 30 due to left meniscus surgery, Embiid has been diligently preparing for his return, focusing on improving his fitness in the lead-up to rejoining his team in the Eastern Conference playoff race.

 

The 76ers currently hold the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference with a record of 40-35, and they have seven games left in the regular season. Among their upcoming matchups are games against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Miami Heat, and Memphis Grizzlies, offering opportunities for Embiid to make an impact as he returns to the court.

 

Embiid, who was named the NBA MVP last season, had been leading the league in scoring with an average of 35.3 points per game before his injury. He was on track to achieve remarkable statistical milestones, aiming to join Wilt Chamberlain as the only other player to maintain averages of at least 35 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists per game in a season.

 

Despite missing a significant portion of the season, Embiid's exceptional performances have kept him in the conversation for top honors, including the league scoring title, where he trails behind Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks.
