The 2024/25 NBA season is proving to be more challenging than usual for Joel Embiid. The Philadelphia 76ers star has been dealing with various injuries since the start.

Embiid has missed 23 out of Philly's first 36 games. He has been managing knee pains, a sinus fracture, a three-game suspension, and now the foot sprain.

Embiid has played 13 games, with Philadelphia tallying a 7-6 record. Overall, the franchise sits 11th in the Eastern Conference with a 15-21 record.
