Joel Embiid intends to suit up for the All-Star Game, per the latest report.
There was some speculation that he may skip the Salt Lake City festivities. After a recent win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Embiid admitted that he had put off doctor’s suggestions to take a couple of weeks off and that he’d been trying to make it to this break to log some rest.
“I’m not sure, I’m not healthy,” Embiid said when asked about starting in the All-Star Game last week. “I haven’t been healthy for the past three weeks or month, I was just trying to get to the All-Star break without missing games and stuff.
