This is going to be rough to type as a fan of both basketball and Joel Embiid, but facts are facts.
Joel missed his first two seasons in the NBA entirely through injury, and now in his first "full" season (he is on a minutes restriction) he suffered a torn MCL and will now miss the remainder of the season. He has only played 31 of a possible 246 games so far in his career... and you know where we're going with this.
Sorry fans, but Joel Embiid is just Greg Oden 2.0. Jason Smith explains.
