Joel Embiid's knee injury continues to be a problem.
Following a two-game absence with left knee soreness, Embiid returned on Tuesday for Philadelphia's matchup with Golden State. Not only did he finish with a season-low 14 points in 30 minutes of action, but he suffered a different injury to the same knee.
Embiid's knee issues have already sidelined him for five of the 14 games the 76ers have played since the new year.
Embiid's next opportunity to play is on Thursday when the 76ers travel to Utah to close a five-game road trip. Will he be available to play?
Here's the latest on Embiid's status against the Jazz.
