The 76ers have major decisions to consider with Joel Embiid’s knee injury.
The 2022-23 NBA MVP was diagnosed with a displaced flap — or a type of tear — of the meniscus in his left knee and, as a result, is considering surgery, sources told The Athletic.
Per the outlet, Embiid’s doctors and the 76ers will continue discussing the best course of action, and one source close to Embiid suggested a decision would likely be made on Monday.
On Thursday, Philadelphia announced that Embiid injured the lateral meniscus in his left knee prior to the team’s 127-124 road win against the Jazz, and he was ruled out for the remainder of the weekend, including a Saturday night game against the Nets.
