NBA star Embiid will miss the rest of the season, and the team is still looking for a long-term solution

According to a report by ESPN on the 1st, Embiid, a seven-time All-Star center of the NBA 76ers, will miss the rest of the season. Embiid has been plagued by a left knee injury throughout the season, and the team is still looking for a long-term solution.

According to the report, Embiid's knee swelling increased after playing against the Nets last week. Embiid has continued to endure pain this season, hoping that his knee condition will improve over time, and sources revealed that Embiid has been treated with multiple injections, but the pain and swelling have not lessened, but have become worse.

Embiid played in just 39 games last season with a torn meniscus in his knee, underwent surgery and returned to the 76ers playoff ranks before competing in the Olympics with Team USA. Embiid admitted earlier this month that he didn't have enough time to recover after surgery.

In the preseason, Embiid signed a three-year $192.9 million contract extension with the 76ers, but only played 19 games, averaging 23.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game, and his average blocks per game (0.9), shooting percentage (44.8%), three-point shooting percentage (29.9%), effective shooting percentage (48.1%), and win shares (1.5) all wrote career lows.

The 76ers spent a lot of money to find P. George before the start of the season, and Embiid and Maxey formed the new Philadelphia Big Three, but P. George and Embiid both stopped and stopped due to injuries, and even if they played at the same time, they only had 7 wins and 8 defeats, resulting in a plummeting team record, and currently only 20-38 losses, ranking 12th in the East.
