The Indiana Pacers may have lucked out here as Joel Embiid is simply resting when he skips out on tonight’s game.
Embiid has been giving opposing teams around the league fits because of his skill-set, scoring 17.6 points and grabbing 6.8 rebounds a game.
He’s a massive human being at 7’0″ and 249 pounds. He uses that build to his advantage, and can even knock down shots from the perimeter.

The Pacers can look forward to not playing against him on Wednesday but will have to prepare for him on Friday night when the Pacers travel to Philadelphia to play the Sixers again.
