Joel Embiid is nearing a return to the court and it could come as quickly as Tuesday night against the Thunder, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com reports.
Embiid, who has only performed in 34 online games this period, has been out given that January 30 mainly because of a knee damage, for which he underwent left meniscus surgical procedures. In the recent times, the reigning MVP has been ramping up his conditioning in anticipation of his return.
The Sixers are motivated to assert a top-6 seed in the meeting and prevent being put in the NBA’s Enjoy-In Event. The club at present retains a record of 40-35 with 7 video games remaining in the year.
