Time for Joel Embiid to evolve again.
While they just notched their first loss of the season, the Philadelphia 76ers are still in great shape to kick off their campaign. They are still tied for the second-best record in the East, and they are just starting to get their key players back from injury, which is particularly a game-changing thing for this group.
Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe have done the heavy lifting thus far with Joel Embiid taking on a more secondary role, although that can also be tossed up to the superstar being on a stern minutes restriction.
