LAWRENCE — According to a report on Saturday from Yahoo! Sports, a recent CT scan revealed an “issue in the healing process” of Embiid’s foot. And a story on Monday in the Philadelphia Inquirer ominously reported that Embiid had a “legitimate chance” to miss the entire 2015-16 season.
Later on Monday afternoon, Kansas coach Bill Self sounded a more positive note when speaking of the foot issue, which stems from a stress fracture suffered before last year’s NBA Draft. Self said Embiid recently spoke to KU assistant coach Norm Roberts about his progress.
“He told us he hasn’t reinjured anything,” Self said.
