Philadelphia 76ers can’t afford for Joel Embiid to be injured

The only thing that’s worse than losing one superstar player to injury, is losing two. Now it appears that the Philadelphia 76ers are in that worse category. Franchise point guard Ben Simmons was already out with an injury and in a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Sixers lost Joel Embiid to a shoulder injury.

The injury occurred when Embiid collided with big man Ante Zizic. After initially going to the locker he came back out to the bench, only to return there for the rest of the night.
