Brett Brown talks Joel Embiid Rehab Progress, NBA Draft Strategy and More

Having been confirmed as the team's lottery representative for next Tuesday, Coach Brett Brown is running the media gauntlet prior to the big night. The Sixers head man made a pit stop at 94.1 WIP yesterday, where he had some encouraging things to say on Joel Embiid and gave a glimpse into the Sixers thought process.

Brown gave a progress report on Embiid's rehab, telling Michael Barkann and Ike Reese that the Kansas and Cameroonian product is right on track:

I feel like he's coming along tremendously. I feel like, from a maturity standpoint and the reality of the professionalism that is required for him to be money and just perfect with the rehab, pre-hab, nutrition, all of that with his foot is ever present in Joel Embiid.
