Joel Embiid Returns To Sixers' Lineup For First Time In 15 Games 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Feb 4, 2025 10:40 pm

Joel Embiid will return to the Philadelphia 76ers' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Embiid has missed the past 15 games due to a foot sprain and knee swelling.


Embiid is averaging 24.4 points, 7.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 29.4 minutes across 13 games this season. 


The Sixers enter the game with a 19-29 record on the season as they decide whether to continue to chase a playoff spot in what has been a disappointing season. Philadelphia also has a top-6 protected draft pick in this year's draft.

Heard somewhere the whole Luka trade was some NBA conspiracy to shake up the ratings. Now that I think about it, it certainly sent a message to the superstars that they're not longer untouchable. So many of them sitting out and too much player empowerment. Luka was probably the best asset in the NBA considering his age and accomplishment. It's going to make alot of these superstars nervous and they might start showing up. Not that far fetched tbh. Specially, the trade didn't make any sense whatsoever.
