Will Injuries Be The Theme For The Sixers This Year?

The Philadelphia 76ers are, like any NBA team, prone to injuries and having their season slowed down by the rigors of 48 minute games of basketball. The Sixers are a team that knows this all too well.

Although they knew about his injury before they drafted him, Joel Embiid‘s injury has gotten to be a pesky talking point for all Sixers fans. Still, we haven’t seen him play a single game as a Sixer, but he’s still on the team, and his injury keeps getting worse. After missing his entire rookie year, he is now missing a second consecutive season due to the fracture of a navicular bone in his left foot.
