Finally, some good news around the Sixers and Joel Embiid.
No, the rookie center isn't magically healed or coming back from a torn meniscus this season. But thanks to SLAM Magazine, the 22-year-old star is in the news this week.
SLAM, the basketball-centric outlet, did a cover story on Embiid's rise, two years lost to injury and impact on basketball coming back to life in Philadelphia. Although the story is currently halted due to a season-ending injury, the magazine ran the cover story for its latest issue.
