Why this wretched season for Joel Embiid and the Sixers might've been doomed from the start
71% Informative
Joel Embiid has played in 452 games in 11 seasons , just over half of that time.
The 76ers have been a juggernaut when he's been on the court.
But this season has been a reckoning -- a dramatic shift to the 76ers ' reality.
The question is whether the team can come up with a plan to return Embiig to the dominant player he was as recently as a year ago .
Embiid 's left knee has swelled, often without trauma, notice or explanation.
The 76ers ' $212 million investment in Paul George was a vote of confidence in him.
There was never a hint that the left knee, in which he's torn the meniscus twice, would hold him back this season .
Joel Embiid 's season is over.
The 76ers shut him down after he scored just 14 points in 31 minutes on Feb. 22 .
The path forward is narrow and uncertain.
