76ers fans dealt crushing Joel Embiid update if rumors are true

The Philadelphia 76ers are starting training camp, and there is no certainty on Joel Embiid’s status. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said no firm answer is coming soon. The team is focused on his long-term health and getting him back to 100 percent. Embiid’s health is often uncertain, but this update feels crushing on top of the team's other depressing news.

76ers fans have seen Embiid looking slim, but they know not to buy in. He has played just 58 total games in the last two seasons and hasn't looked like himself since the 2024 Olympics.
