Joel Embiid, likely the top draft pick of the 2014 NBA Draft, fell out of the top draft spot because of nagging back and foot health issues.

Jahlil Okafor, initially diagnosed with a bruised knee, wanted to return to play but his pain did not subside. Knowing that pain equates to injury, Okafor’s knee underwent diagnostic imaging and discovered a small meniscus tear that ended his season.
