Joel Embiid’s career has been A Series of Unfortunate Events

Three different times man.

Three fucking times.

The 76ers will once again have to go on an extended stretch of games without Joel Embiid available. Embiid suffered a sinus fracture in a Dec. 13 loss to the Indiana Pacers when he was inadvertently hit in the face by Benedict Mathurin crashing for a rebound.

This is the third time Embiid has had a fracture in his face in his NBA career — he broke an orbital bone towards the end of the 2018 and then the other orbital bone in the first round of the 2022 playoffs.
