ANALYSIS: This could be a big sigh of relief for the 76ers, but they must ask themselves if it's truly worth it since Embiid is nursing two injuries at the moment. Not to mention one of those injuries will require surgery when the playoffs are done. It may not be up to them since it's clear as day that Embiid wants to play, which goes to show the kind of competitor he is.
