After weeks of uncertainty about what was going on with Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid, we finally got some leaked information.
Sources: Joel Embiid hasn’t had surgery. Still scheduled. Delay bc he’s coming to terms. Also reached out to K Durant http://t.co/yxYOcOvYCM

Unfortunately, this didn’t come from the team, which is disappointing. Fans felt let down when the Sixers didn’t give fans any information following an announcement that Embiid would have surgery in “7-10 days.”
It’s still murky water as far as what the delay was, but at the time of releasing a statement saying the surgery would be in 10 days, they hadn’t chose a doctor.
