Nearly everything is topsy-turvy when it comes to dishing out predictions before the season even begins. For the Philadelphia 76ers, that partakes the form of expecting the team to somehow turn in a cleaner bill of health when all signs point to that wish being way too ambitious in account of precedence and all.
No player embodies that more than Joel Embiid. The 76ers superstar has appeared in a combined 58 games over the last couple of seasons. IN the most recent campaign, he was in uniform for only 19 outings, never really playing up to par with his usual level and showing some intimidating signs of injury-related decline.
