PHOENIX — Joel Embiid’s practice regimen for the most part is about receiving treatment, studying game tape and putting up shots.
It involves “getting medically worked on a lot,” 76ers coach Brett Brown said of his standout center. “You know, taking whatever we can in that time line and helping him physically get better.”
Embiid has been limited during Sixers practice sessions after recovering from left knee surgery in March. He also has been dealing with back tightness and has yet to be cleared to play on consecutive nights.
“The good news is we are seeing progress where he can slowly start to do things more with the team,” Brown said.
