As many NBA fans know, Joel Embiid has not played a single game in over two years. The whole situation has been frustrating but it is looking more and more like Embiid will play his first career game next season. Due to Embiid missing so much time, his rookie season will go one of two ways in my opinion. It will either be everything we wished for, or it will be disappointing and I don’t think there is any in between. I’ll save the best for last and describe the disappointing season first.

Ever since Embiid was drafted back in 2014 he has had the label on him to be the savior of the franchise and the next great NBA big man.
