After Joel Embbiid's fate has decided for this season, many questions remain for 76

By Dan Gelston AP athlete

Philadelphia (AP) – Joel Embiid is closed for the season after the continuing effects of knee surgery.

The final answer to the eternal will he plays tonight, which achieved the 76 season on Friday when the Sixers said that Embbiid was “unable to play medically” and would concentrate on the treatment and rehabilitation of his left knee.

However, uncertainty remains in Philadelphia.

Is Embiid finally finished? At least as a productive all-star player?

Are the 76s with years of mediocrity or worse with fat contracts associated with aging, unproductive players, while you have the opportunity to lose a choice in the first round this season?

There are no simple answers for Team President Daryl Morey, who drove into the low season, and Embiid's uncertain future complicated only a potential long -term success for the Sixers.

“Not what we hoped,” admitted coach Nick Nurse on Saturday evening.

This setback was the latest in a steady series of them with Embbiid since the 76 made it a No. 3 in the draft from 2014.

What's going on with Embiid?

Embiid's career was devastated by injuries – a bone bloody casting here, a meniscal tear, a broken orbital bone, a bricked shoulder, tendinitis, torn ligaments, even Bell paralysis – over a career that started his first two full seasons with him.

The youngest: Embiid was a meniscus surgery on February 6, 2024 after he was injured when Jonathan Kuminga of the Golden State fell on the left leg of the 7-foot. Embiid returned in good time for the playoffs, where the 76s were eliminated by the Sixers in the first round.

Embbiid has never completely recovered from the knee injury and he only played 19 games this season.

Nurse said Embiid had no setback from knee surgery, it was simply never 100% returned to the 2023 NBA MVP.

“Sometimes it felt good, sometimes it didn't feel so good,” said nurse. “It was a kind of up and down. It comes to the point where it feels a little better and it can play. Then it swells again and it doesn't feel so good and he can't play, it cannot move. “

Embbiid could still choose an operation if calm and rehab does not work, and all invasive interventions on his knee could cost him a lot of time next season.

What's next for the 76s?

The short answer is the same process that switched to the 76s: tank.

The first choice of the 76 is protected by top SIX or goes to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Sixers ran down when they lost a defeat against nine games and defeated the Golden State on Saturday.

The 76s are 21-38, which are on the way against Portland Game on Monday. There are six teams in front of them with poorer records, but the Sixers could pass Toronto and Brooklyn with a collapse.

The greater concern for the Sixers is the financial hit.

For no real reason to offer someone other than goodwill, the 76 signed an Embiid for a three-year extension before the season and blocked it in four years with guaranteed money of $ 248.1 million. The 76s could get the relief of the salary limit if the violation of Embbiid is considered a career end, but this decision can be taken down the road far.

The Sixers signed Paul George and Tyrese Maxey in summer with contracts of 400 million US dollars, who together with the Embiid contract will bring the franchise to 146 million US dollars next season. This means that the Sixers are little financial flexibility in the off -season and without a lot of talent on the squad of those who stay nearby.

George turned 35 in May and he was enforced in Philly in his first season with injuries and ineffectiveness.

Should he play at the Olympic Games?

This season, Empbiid admitted that he was not given enough time to recover from his knee surgery – and this can be used to play a large part of his decision to play for the team at the USA.

The 76s supported Empiid publicly in his decision last season to decide gold (what the United States won), but had little input for decision. Empbiid had his moments in the Paris players, but was mainly for the journey and on the bench when Steph Curry became 3-point crowd in the Goldmedal victory against France.

The coach of the USA, Steve Kerr, distracted questions about the health of Embbiid during the Warriors' Olympic Games against the 76.

“We only play,” said Kerr on Saturday evening. “Ultimately, it is a decision that the player has to make.”

Embbiid's heir

Embbiid is 31 years old this month, and given his age and general physical condition, it is absurd to believe that he can ever regain his MVP form. His career only scored an average of 27.7 points behind Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain and Luka Doncic on the career list. He dropped 70 points. Won an MVP and two points. It was a five-time all-NBA selection.

With these awards alone, Empbiid seems to be intended for the hall of fame. However, whether he is intended for a championship ring is a thought that fades with every extensive absence.

Embbiid is the only NBA MVP that his team never led beyond the second round of the playoffs. The Sixers have five outputs in the second round and were removed twice in the first round during his tenure. In a defeat in game 7 in the 2023 East semi-final in Boston, Embiid only managed 15 points in 5-of-18 shooting and missed all four 3 points.

He has never played in more than 68 games in one season and only exceeded 60 three more seasons.

His absences cloud the legacy of a player who, like everyone else, in the league, if he is at the best side, the durability in both games simply did not show. In both games and overall big career, which stamps over an all-timer over decades of career.

The hall does not quite exclude the hall yet. Big Men Yao Ming, Ralph Sampson and Bill Walton recorded all the inferior NBA numbers to convert through injury-lasting careers (albeit with great cultural effects), and still made it to Springfield.
