Joel Embiid will make his return to action Tuesday night at the Wells Fargo Center as the Sixers take on the Detroit Pistons, but that’s not all.
He’s also sporting a new look.

Embiid emerged for warmups with his hair in a new style. We’ll have to wait and see if the braids have any effect on his productivity (70-bomb incoming?).
Before the game, head coach Doc Rivers said the center was likely to make his return before Embiid was announced in the starting lineup later Tuesday evening.
