“While the foot sprain has healed, Embiid experienced an increase in swelling in his left knee following the workout,” the Sixers said in a statement. “After consulting with team medical staff and external doctors, Embiid will receive treatment in the coming days to address the swelling.”

The Philadelphia 76ers will continue their homestand on Friday night against the Denver Nuggets. Nikola Jokic and company are eager to snap a three-game losing streak while the Sixers will look to increase their winning streak to five.
